    reloading .30cal

    Quick question. Since .30 carbine brass is straight walled, does it still need to be trimmed?

      Yes it does since it headspaces on the case mouth and if it is too long there is a chance for it to fire out of battery. I've always been told to trim my carbine brass because of this

        It needs to be trimmed and it is NOT straight walled! It is tapered.
