I'm just starting down the road to reloading and have some questions. I have read many threads on this site but am asking anyway.
I will be loading 9mm Lugar rounds to be fired in a XD9SC. I have lots of once fired brass that I fired and also lots of range pick up brass that a friend has gotten for me.
I purchased a single stage press and a carbide die set, an electronic scale, powder measure. case trimmer, Hornady digital caliper, and misc small tools.
?#1 Have a Lyman 49th ed reloading book and ABC of reloading. The Lymans shows length of.754 and a trimmed case length of .751. I have measured 20 or so cases of different manufactrues and none of the measure over .749. What is the proper length?
?#2 Can someone suggest a case length guage to purchase?
?#3 I have a Primer Pocket cleaner, do I need a Flash Hole deburring tool?
Thanks, I'm sure I will have questions later.
