    Loading 9mm for XD9, COL ?

    Tony, Sorry about the confusion, the initial rounds I built would fail to chamber. The rounds I built would feed but then stick (I'm assuming because they reached the rifling) out of the chamber a little and keep the slide from returning completely forward. When they did slam all the way in...

    Loading 9mm for XD9, COL ?

    Full disclosure, I'm a relative newbie to reloading and the workup I did for 9mm was my first, but the biggest problem I had with that workup was the COL issue. Below is a link to the discussion here that I started about it: http://thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=485712&page=2 That said, I...

    FTF Question - what am I missing?

    First of all, thank you all for the quick responses and the wealth of information. My purpose for reloading is cost savings, as I shoot a LOT of 9mm, primarily practice plinking and competitive target shooting (IDPA, USPSA, and Bullseye). I realize that 124gr JHP isn't the ideal bullet for...

    FTF Question - what am I missing?

    Will order a case gauge later this week. Beretta is a 92fs INOX. Beretta allowed round to chamber right around 1.140" I've gotten rounds to chamber in all my 9mm firearms consistently by reducing OAL of the rounds to 1.075". The pickiest barrels were from the P6 and XD, which both needed...

    Reloading newbie here with what I'm hoping is a newb question. I'm trying to load 9mm 124 grain JHP rounds but having trouble and not sure what the problem is. Details are below but the problem is the round is failing to completely chamber and then keeping the slide from closing. This...
