My Dad was rather enamored with the concept despite the fact he never owned an M1 Carbine and generally had a low opinion of them. Anyway, I inherited one from him, actually seems to be built on a Super Blackhawk frame, big gun. Looking for light load ideas, yesterday I shot some of the Lee soup cans, sans gas checks and 4 grains of 700X and was a little surprised how well it shot with just casual plinking. I might have to sand bag it and really see what it'll do. Looking for light load experiences like this, I don't want a full power .30 carbine round in a pistol.
