to chamber in the Bearcat cylinder and that was why you originally chambered your hellcat in 32 H&R and used the 32 H&R as the base for you 250 GNR.

The reason specifically for chambering the 30 Super Carry in the bearcat/hellcat is that it's more powerful and cheaper than 32 H&R factory loads. I.e. outside of a larger caliber, it's the most powerful and cheapest centerfire cartridge available.

If indeed you can chamber the bearcat cylinder in a larger caliber, then yes, 9mm would make more sense.
