30 Cal, I'm in business now

I love shooting my CMP 30 Underwood Cal Carbine. I have tons of brass, bullets and primers.

Problem being, its a pain to load in volume. 6 steps, sizing, belling the mouth, seating the primer, charging the powder, seating, and crimping.

I have an old Dillon RL 1000 made in 1978, works great but parts, mainly shell holders are hard to find.

I had the same problem with 45 LC but found out Dillion still had a floor plate, (not a lot of cowboy action shooting back then so 45 LC parts for the RL1000 didn't sell well). So they had one in stock.

So I crossed all my fingers and toes and called Dillon. Sure enough they had one in stock and its on the way.

Gonna tear up the CMP Carbine course now.

When you get around to it sir, would you mind getting a picture of a bunch of .30 carbine cartridges ready to go? I'd love to see that! This is on my 'wish list' for someday.
