Thanks for the replies. I am going to start around mid range and make 25 and then ramp up from there if needed. Put em through the chrony and make my decision.

I've been loading 9mm for about a year and now am starting to load 40's and am looking at data and reading boards about it. My lyman 49th says with power pistol I should be at 6.3-7.0 gr but it says with TMJ without the FN. Speer says 7.0-7.9 but I don't have the speer bullets. Hornady shows...
Still being a new to reloading for less than year I have a question about a possible misfire. I loaded 9mm 124gr with Titegroup and cci 500 primers. The brass is once fired federal brass. Once fired by me. Out of the last batch of 300 I had 2 that the firing pin hit but never discharged. I can...
As far as top coat finish goes, if you're going to use polyurethane do yourself a favor and go to a flooring store and get a better grade than Minwax. Gym Seal or any other flooring hard coat has a much harder finish than Minwax and can withstand a lot more. Even though its only a reloading...
Colorado Voters: Recall Vote is At Hand!
Outside money turned Colorado into test case for state-level infringements on 2nd Amendment rights. Now the country gets to see whether Colorado will hold its elected officials accountable. John Morse and Angela Giron both supported firearms restrictions...
Sorry if this is a newb question but I have only been reloading for 8 months. I am trying Power Pistol for the first time so I loaded up some 9mm 115gr berry's RN with CCI 500 primers. The lyman 49th book said 1.09 OAL with 5.9 grains for a starting point. My question is that after measuring...
I use the same H322 powder for my 223 loads also. I don't have any problems loading with my Dillon 550b. I can only tell you to slow down and let the powder meter through the measure. I check my powder between every 15-20 load and its usually right on or within .1 of what I want.

Thank you to everyone who responded to this post. I went back and adjusted my crimping die maybe an 1/8 turn and it took out the flare. It was a very minor adjustment that made the difference. Even though they cycled through my gun, the piece of mind knowing they are correct is really what...
I just loaded my 1st batch of 9mm and have discovered something is wrong. I did these on a Dillon 550b with Dillon dies and did what I thought was the same exact thing each time. The cases were lubed. As you can see by the pictures, when I put them in the case gauge about 3 out of 10 did not sit...
I wish I had more choices here in NY for components. The very few I see are always out of stock and when they replenish stock they expect the mortgage payment for it..

I have the berry flat bottom 9mm in 115 gr. I have purchased the Lyman 49th edition,Speer manual and Hornady 8th edition. I also got from the Library the ABC'S of reloading. At this time I was only able to get Titegroup powder because thats all my LGS had at the time and the guy said it would...
Mine did the same thing when I set it up. All I did was loosen the screws and adjust the chute away and then re-tightened them and its been fine ever since. it took some playing with.
Sorry if this has been asked before. I am just coming into the pistol reloading and although I have many different pistols my marriage wont allow me to load for everything and honestly I dont feel comfortable taking too much on at the start anyway. I am starting off reloading for my 9mm first. I...
I know exactly who you are talking about!! The wife is not a very nice person at all but Tony her husband is an awesome person. At the Harrisburg Pa show she was yelling at people telling them we have no power for our register so "GO AWAY" until they fix it!! Major turnoff but the prices are...
Same thing here. Ive been reading these forums and others about reloading. I have manuals and info coming out of my ears and am glad I started that way. Ive been reloading about 6 months now and its a disease to say the least! I spend hours in my reloading man cave on a single press and am...
