i have used all types of 30 carbine ammo and tula is the only type that ever stuck in the cylinders...
Did any of the other types use steel cases? Like I said before, the inelasticity of Tula's steel cases might allow unburnt powder to blow back around the case when the gun is fired. Brass cases expand and seal the chamber better so they'd be less likely to foul the chambers as badly. The combination of powder blowback from the steel cases and the slow-burning powder used in the .30 Carbine cartridge likely worked in combination to cause your problem. Changing either variable by either using brass cases or faster-burning powder would probably alleviate the issue. This would explain why, if none of the other ammo you tried had steel cases, that you only experienced the issue with Tula.
