.30 Super Carry
.30 Super Carry is a rimless pistol cartridge introduced by Federal Premium in early 2022.[3] It was designed as a competitor to 9×19mm Luger and .380 ACP for use in semi-automatic handguns, where its smaller dimensions are intended to permit greater magazine capacity without increasing physical magazine size. The cartridge's ballistic performance is purported by its manufacturers to rival that of 9×19 Luger,[4] however the cartridge dimensions and ballistics might be better compared to the 7.62×25mm Tokarev, which was a pre-WWII improvement of the late 19th century 7.63×25mm Mauser, which was an improvement of the 7.65×25mm Borchardt.
