I reload .30 Luger. My normal reloads would not eject the empty or work the slide to chamber another cartridge. I used Unique as my powder and kept increasing the load past the listed maximum until it functioned 100%. I use 85 gr. PPU bullets.

I shot a couple of clips but thought about the age of the carbine and its value and decided to just look at the beautiful weapon and not risk breaking something.

I won't publish the load I used before wimping out since it could damage someone else's work of art. I wouldn't want to be responsible for such a scenario.
