I just worked up some new 9mm loads using CFE Pistol and Berry's 115 gr round nose bullets and cci 500 primers. I did several working my way from min to max recommended by Hodgdon.
Every single round ended up with soot on the outside. All the rounds seemed reasonably accurate and every round chambered and ejected correctly. I made sure to crimp, but matched it up against factory loads. I measured and weighed every load. The 2 on the left were factory rounds and they didn't get the soot.
Is this just how CFE Pistol is, since it's a slower burning powder or did I screw something up?
