NH,
Many moons ago I played with a carbine and reloaded for it with a Pacific tong tool. Someone,,Speer maybe, made a 100 grain 30 cal half jacket bullet called the 'Plinker" and it was my choice in the carbine. I don't remember the powder but it may have been 2400. Anyway, I missed loading powder in a case and seated a bullet. Fortunately, when chambered and fired, the primer moved the bullet just far enough out of the case so that following rounds would not chamber. I thought the rest of the loaded rounds were not sized enough. I discovered my error later and knocked the stuck bullet loose. It is somewhere in a box around here now. After reading this thread I remembered that close call. I am gazing at that carbine now. If you ever get the chance, manipulate the bolt of a carbine and watch how it locks up. Notice the play in it. Try to imagine that action trying to handle a hot load of pistol powder and a .32 bullet. Held up by someone's face. I'd like to think you'd ask about bullet choice as well.
dzrtram,
It sounds like you're ready to go now. Long live those carbines. max
