I reload for my carbine using lead/wheel weight bullets, the Lyman 311359 with a gas check works great. Contrary to popular beliefs I have not had any leading problems to date, the load I use runs about 1725fps. Once you have the brass it brings the cost down to around .05 cents a round if you scrounge your lead/wheel weights.
The "difference" with the M2 mags is that there was an additional "finger" added to the mag catch and an additional bump on the 30-round mag to engage that finger.
Basically it was just designed to help support the added weight of the 30-round mag over the stock 15 round mag.
Both mag types and mag catches are compatible with each other; 15 round mags work fine with the extended M2 mag catch and 30 round mags work fine with the stock M1 mag catch

AIM is advertising Privi at $20 per 50 rounds.
And a question for reloaders: I think the .30 carbine case is slightly tapered. Can it be reloaded with a carbide sizing die?

I am not a mil surp expert, but I have had the Tula ammo for $15 for 50. The Gold Dot is twice that. The Japanese mags are notorious for not working. If I find some more in the warehouse, I will sell you some of Fred's old ammo for a song. Or a stogie...
The only down side of reloading .30C is that -- unlike most other straight-walled stuff -- the cases have to be trimmed every loading.
