My standard 9mm load uses Berry's 124 gr. plated flat nose bullets @ .356" - My standard .38 Special load uses an Xtreme 125 gr. target hollow points at .357"
A buddy of mine really liked my .38 Special load and bought a thousand of the Xtreme Target Hollow Points and then decided he didn't like loading them or they didn't perform for him....he uses a different powder and a progressive press so he just isn't getting the benefit. Anyway, we has given me 800 of these and I already have a few hundred left in my bin *but* I'm out of .356 9mm bullets and between jobs. So, dropping near a $100 for another 1000 9mm 124 gr. Flat noses is dicey for me for a few more weeks until the new job starts.
I have always wanted to load some .357" 125 gr. bullets in 9mm and work up the load. Has anyone ever tried this?
Thanks in advance for any tips you might offer. And thanks in advance for the "OMG, what the fuck are you thinking!!" as well....
VooDoo
Anyone ever load .125 gr. .357 bullets in 9mm?
