New Practice Ammo From Federal For 30 Super Carry
Say you want a handgun cartridge that hits hard and carries small. You might end up buying a pistol chambered in 30 Super Carry and then you might be looking for practice ammunition. Federal says it’s got what you want, with a new loading in its Champion Training series.
Federal Ammunition @ TFB:
- Federal Adds New 357 Magnum and 327 Federal Magnum HST Loads
- 15 NEW Federal Sub-Gauge Loads in High Over All Competition Target
- Federal Punch Self-Defense Ammo Has New .25 ACP Option
The new 30 Super Carry practice load in the Champion Training series comes with a 90-grain FMJ bullet, ripping along at 1300 fps. They’re currently available through select dealers, and Federal’s website also has a purchasing option.
Chris Laack, Federal’s Handgun Ammunition Product Manager, says the new lighter-weight, 90-grain load provides low felt recoil for longer, more comfortable training sessions when compared to common 100-grain loads.
“Our American Eagle 30 Super Carry 100-grain training load is already a light recoiling, easy-to-shoot load, even though it’s matched to our Personal Defense HST 100-grain load to deliver the same feel and point of impact,” Laack says. “However, this new lighter-weight Champion Training 30 Super Carry 90-grain load feels even easier, softer, less recoiling, and more fun to shoot.”
If you aren’t familiar with 30 Super Carry, it’s a new pistol cartridge that Federal introduced in 2022, intended to offer hitting power similar to a 9x19mm round but in a smaller overall size. This lets shooters carry more rounds in a pistol of the same size. Federal says the 30 Super Carry round is more powerful than a .380 Auto round and that “with it, shooters can hold 12-13 rounds in a magazine similar to the size of a 10-round 9mm Luger.”
The MSRP for a 50-round box of the new Champion Training rounds is $31.99. See more details at FederalPremium.com.

I really need to get one of the Hi-Point carbines in this.
I feel like 30sc missed its mark. Instead of making 9mm sized guns with increased capacity they need to make 32 or 380 sized guns with 9mm stopping power.
