Ervin,

Ignore the insults. No question is a bad one. 231 is too fast for a carbine load although you could probably get a bullet to exit the barrel without blowing up the gun with a small amount of it in a case. I use 296 and 2400 in my 30 carbine loads. Save the 231 for your 45 or your 38's and others.
