I bet they are great for reloading also.

I actually have some of that ammo in my ammo locker. I didn’t know that rimfire ammo came with a centerfire primer! I’ma hafta throw this stuff out!

I'm presuming it was mislabeled in the Academy ad...vs. actually being .30 rimfire (is there such thing?
).

Definitely a typo. There is no such thing as rimfire .30 Carbine ammunition!ScottDLS wrote: Wed Nov 28, 2018 1:51 pm I'm presuming it was mislabeled in the Academy ad...vs. actually being .30 rimfire (is there such thing?).

See? Same ammo as in the ad, but it has a centerfire primer! I hope it will fire in my M1!JustSomeOldGuy wrote: Wed Nov 28, 2018 12:46 pm Take a photo of the case head and post it here before you toss it. This I gotta see......

Duh. OK, some days I'm a little slow.....shoulda remembered that medium/large bore rimfire exited about the same time as black powder........
Better be careful with those, though. '30 Carb' x 50 rounds is 1500 Carbs per box. Could do bad things to your cholesterol level.
