Stopping Power of .30 Super Carry 

The main problem with this video is the fact that because he is shooting with the wrong hand it automatically will lose 50-100 feet per second and at least 1 inch of penetration. It's a verifiable fact that I found on the internet. Yes I am joking. Nice video!

I like the 30 super, light recoil, basically same power as the 9, wish it had a better following, great video!

It seems to be an effective round and a good caliber for carry. It's just a shame it doesn't seem to have gained popularity and heading in the "dud" direction. It may become the next .45 GAP or .357 Sig: no one making that gun and ammo neatly impossible to find and if you do find it, extremely high prices and limited selection.

I found 3 different at Academy. Remington, Blazer and Hornandy defense rounds

Yeah a lot of people talk trash about the 30 Super Carry as if it was made to replace 9mm it was designed to replace 380 ACP because of all the problems they had to expense and penetration who are the Super Carry now covers those bases

The timing of the release of .30SC was unfortunate -- I'll say stupid -- considering we were still in an ammo shortage at the time. Also did we need something above .380 but below 9mm? Some might say yes, many have clearly said no. The supply of .30SC ammo in my area flucuates, occasionally many boxes on the shelf, more frequently none at all. I remember when Academy Sports & Outdoors had the S&W .30SC marked down to $199.99 not long after its introduction. I haven't seen one for sale locally since. At another time, under different circumstances, the .30SC might've been accepted with open arms and open wallets 😊.

I purchased one primarily for the reason its not a 9mm.

Unfortunately it’s a dead round. It’ll turn into what the 327 federal is now.

If Sig put out a p365 in 30SCC, i think that would def help to improve the lack of popularity.

In my opinion this round was made to be dead before it came out. This is how i see it. 9mm is a mini van, with a manual sliding door. Then the company make another mini van, the exact same but with an automatic electric door. It is may be a tad better? But it just aint good enough to sell up and buy the new one for.

If ruger modified the grip of the lcp max to use a converted max9 mag and changed the feed lips and follower to 30 super carry, Strengthened slightly the upper and maybe an integral comp, That would be a gun that made 30 super carry a totally different option, That would be a 13+1 and 16+1 in a gun the size of an lcp max, And maybe offer an XL model with the same grip but a 3 1/2" to 4" barrel, With that your getting a pocket gun with a flush 13 plus 1 that getting standard 9mm 115gr power and would be way lighter and smaller than even the 365, But the ultimate would be a custom designed stack and a half 30SC as thin as possible with a 10 plus 1 that would be considerably smaller and thinner than even an lcp max.

Dude plz get a cheap heat gun and window clear that gel plz tnx

I think Federal did better with .327 Federal Magnum. That cartridge struck the right balance between .38 and .357, whilst having an extra round of capacity in a small revolver. .30SC has less merit by comparison, since 9mm already has pretty low recoil, and capacity is less relevant. With revolvers, an increase from 5 to 6 is noteworthy. In an automatic, going from 10-12 is not significant.

Just got my s&w shield plus in 30 sc. Also i got a hi point carbine in 30 sc. They say that the carbine puts out bout 1500 feet per second

Try the Federal HST. My EZ clocks the 1250 box label fps, pretty consistent, less out of my Shield +. Nasty bullet like the rest of the HST line. Cheaper to reload, more capacity, and I'll take the extra penetration from the sectional density. Sold all my 9's except a couple, and have switched over to 32. 327 mag, and the 30 uses the same bullets, and a no brainer for if you reload. Couldn't imagine being stuck with factory ammo like I once was. The ability to tailor your rounds to the gun, and purpose is well worth the investment.

Ballistically it really hits a sweet spot between 9mm. My major problem is that it is being marketed as a 9mm alternative instead of being chambered in pocket pistols as a serious upgrade for .32 and .380.

Sounds like a 380 magnum🤔, (bullet weight) 100 gr @1200, or maybe a 9mm🤔🥴🙃 It gives you extra carry supply

I'd be interested in 30 Super Carry, when a unique & interesting firearm comes out for it that does something different design wise; I'm not interested in another cookie cutter pistol

Lol. Kind of forget that 30 super even existed.

In Colorado there is at 4 different loadings in all ammo stores.

I like your videos but please try to get some of those packaging wrinkles out of the gel. It’s tough to see what you’re talking about.

Had no problem finding ammunition

PSA has tons of 30 Super ammo

Good morning here from Brazil 🇧🇷. Great text, congratulations on the work. Thanks for sharing

I like that it doesn’t waste as much energy passing the superficial layers of the target yet opens up to about half an inch

You have to wonder what they were thinking when they invested millions marketing a failure nobody wanted and offers nothing but scarcity because it failed.lol.Its not a bad cartridge for deep concealment or backup maybe.

*Honestly... it's shill videos like this is why I stopped doing gun reviews. I really don't want to be associated with you people anymore.* Tell the fkn truth. 30 super carry is a crap caliber, made to generate money from "gotta have its". PERIOD! It makes NO SENSE.

Poor choice for self defense just like 9mm
