    30 Carbine reloading

    If your going to do a lot of carbine shooting, then buy quality-RCBS or Hornady. If you only plan to shoot the occasional errant beer can then Lee is your ticket. I use Lee exclusively for all calibers as well as my casting supplies. I'm not interested in 1/10th MOA at 1000 yards, just the 8 x 10 inch sheet of paper with an orange dot at 100 yards. As you will learn, the M1icon Carbine can be a pain in the *** to reload. It has a very slight taper thus it requires lubrication. I also have a carbide insert because I'm parinoid when it comes to removing a stuck case. You need to use a taper crimp to keep the bullet in place. Keep your MV low to reduce leading if you use cast bullets. Good luck.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
