surplus 30 carbine ammo

The surplus 30 carbine ammo is a lightweight rifle cartridge, later adapted for some pistol use, that remains popular with M1 Carbine shooters. Originally designed to give military units greater firepower than standard sidearms without the extra weight of traditional rifle rounds, it’s about half the load of the M1 Garand cartridge.

When choosing .30 Carbine ammo, look for a 110-grain projectile with a full metal jacket (FMJ)—the most common choice in commercial loads. These rounds offer a velocity of approximately 1,990 feet per second and a muzzle energy of around 970 foot-pounds, delivering reliable performance for both target practice and tactical applications.

Are M1 Carbine Ammo Corrosive?

Due to the changes made in primer manufacture, M1 Carbine ammo, particularly that produced after WWII by the U.S., is generally considered to be (non-corrosive). The move to noncorrosive primes reduced the long-term wear of firearms. Corrosive primers could leave behind salts which attract moisture and can cause corrosion, if they are not cleaned properly. It’s important to remember that older ammunition and especially that which was produced in foreign countries and during WWII may still contain corrosive qualities. These older rounds or those sourced from foreign countries may require extra care to prevent corrosive residue. It’s important to know the production date and source for any ammunition, especially if they are vintage or surplus. It is also important to clean your rifle thoroughly after each shooting. This will help maintain the condition of the gun and reduce any corrosion caused by trace residue.

Is a 30 carbine stronger than 9mm?

.30 Carbine is stronger in terms of velocity and energy than a 9mm, even though they were designed for different platforms and purposes.

  1. Velocity : A standard 110-grain bullet in a.30 Carbine will travel at a velocity of around 1,900-2,00 feet per second (fps). In comparison, a 9mm bullet with a 115-124-grain standard bullet would typically travel around 1000-1,200 fps. The.30 Carbine bullet can maintain its energy for longer distances due to the higher velocity.

  2. Energy The.30 Carbine typically has muzzle energies of 900 to 1,000 foot-pounds (ft lbs). In comparison, the 9mm’s energy is closer 300 to 400 ft lbs. The.30 Carbine is more powerful in terms of stopping, especially at longer ranges.

  3. Design: Originally designed for the M1 Carbine to be used by military personnel, this round is lighter than full-size rifle rounds but has more power than pistol cartridges. The 9mm is a popular pistol cartridge designed to be effective at close range.

The .30 Carbine has a higher energy and velocity than the 9mm, which makes it better suited for applications that require a longer range and more power. The 9mm is used more for self-defense because of its smaller recoil and greater versatility.
