I have never done this, but would .30 carbine brass be useable for forming 30 caliber Luger brass... if my memory serves me correctly, the head sizes are about the same... and the neck would be pretty darn close to the right size... of course there would a lot of trimming necessary... but at least the brass is fairly common.

If someone has both types of brass handy along with a caliper, could you report back here please... I am sure lots of folks would like to know.
