I started to reload lead bullets (Friendswood Bullet Co.) for my wife's SA 9mm and seem to get an occasional keyhole - about 1 in 10 shots (125 gr bullet with 4.4 grains of Bullseye). I've double checked the OAL (1.15") and my factory crimp die (don't believe I'm overcrimping). I do not get any keyholing with factory ammo so I've eliminated any problem with the gun.
I've read a few threads on 9 mm lead bullets and keyholing which seems to be an occasional problem.
Question - is it 'normal' to get an occasional keyhole shooting this 9 mm load?
