    Sorry for sidetracking this thread.
    Yes about Unique.
    Unique have been used to load to just about anything.
    My point for 110/296 is that it is a little more versatile than some where claiming. I also gave examples of some chamberings for which it was useful.

    Interesting discussion. However, most of it is not pertinent to the thread topic cartridge; the 30 Carbine. I find H110 to be a very versatile powder for use in the 30 Carbine cartridge for use in the M1 Carbine. I've used H110 quite successfully under 77 gr bullets up through 124 gr bullets [M1s use of heavier bullets is limited by the slow 18" twist] both cast and jacketed.

    Looks like Win 296/H110 gets the nod. Semi local bass pro says they have it in stock.
