This round already exists. It’s called 7.62x25 tokarev. And it’s a cast iron b*tch.

Longer and wider case. #0 SC has more capacity/smaller pistol.

But the Tokarev has a width of 0.392, while the 30 Super Carry is only 0.344, enabling more capacity.

I do love the Tok, though. Here’s a crime novel in which the penetration power of the Tokarev plays a pivotal part in the climax: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0997539518
