30 carbine ammo options???

[Yamaha]

Well, i was wondering what was out there for it, as all I have is S & B 110gr fmj's, and some hand loaded 55gr accelerator sabots for my m1. And no, these accelerators are not down loaded, they have more recoil than the standard 110 fmj's,

well, anyone have any info for me?

Did you handload the accelerator sabots yourself? If so, handloading would be the answer to your question.

If not, it's a good time to learn how to reload. You can get into a single stage press and dies for around $100. Powder and primers - see Indiana Gun Club in Geist.

You can certainly produce cheaper and higher quality rounds by rolling your own.

those were handloaded by a gentleman in fishers I've bought ammo off of before that passed away, I found a source for the 308 to .22cal sabots, so do that and then get some 222 or 223 bullets.....and you're golden

edit: that source also had the die to load the sabot without damage

Cor bon makes a kick a** off the shelf load also. Cor Bon DPX30100/20 It is some truly wicked rounds. I have nailed a couple of yotes with it. Impressive to say the least

Aguila makes a 110gr round. Can you buy those sabots as components? I'd love to hand load some of those.

Didn't know about Corbon, are those using Barnes bullets?

I just recently found a source for the plastic sabot piece to go from 308 to 22. It was like $8.xx for 50 IIRC, maybe that was for 100. But anyways, that, 223 ball or 22 hornet(lighter yet) would make handloading interesting with the cartridge

Where did you find them?

CMP has a good deal on 500 rd cases of Aguila.

I have shot LC 72. I stocked up at the Ntl. Gun Day show a year ago at $35/120 round bando. Shoots pretty darn good. Better than I can.

heres a comparison. btw, the sabots are LC 44 brass.... I'll pm the site addy as I don't want to break advertising rules of the site.
