Word to the wise. If you get that .30 Carbine wear good ear protection. They are very loud. Also, if you plan to reload, be advised that those cases “grow” and will need to be trimmed after each loading or you will lock your up your cylinder.

I have an OM Blackhawk in .30 Carbine and do load for it. That brass really “grows” when fired and I have to trim cases after each loading. If you don’t you’ll lock that cylinder up. Ask me how I know.

Sounds like a great Karma. Please include me and many thanks.

I have been reloading since the early 70s. For many years all my needs were met with Bullseye, Unique and 2400. Since retiring, I have branched out a bit with #5 and #9. #9 is really impressive in 38 Super and .41 Magnum.

I bought an OM 30 Carbine several years ago and would suggest you watch case length closely. I trim after each firing as those cases do grow.

Years ago, I had a little time to kill before time for an appointment. A pawn shop was nearby. No better place to kill time. The shop had a new model Single 6 with the 9 1/2” barrel. Box and extra cylinder included. He also had a 4” stainless Security Six. Both guns appeared to have been...

And I thought I was the only one to have headspace issues with a 336.

Foreman Scotty and 3-D Danny, aka Danny Williams, were my favorites on WKY during the 60s. Danny Williams played a number of roles for kids during the 60s. He was also a great disc Jockey during the early rock n roll days.

If it is the original style priming tool, the shell holder is threaded and screws into the holder. These were the best shell holders Lee ever made. No plastic parts. Newer ones are junk. You might try getting a RCBS hand priming tool. They use the same shell holder as your press.

Keep those cases trimmed back for that Blackhawk.

Please consider me and thanks.
