@ luvit : PM sent.

Wow - so much friendly help here <sarc> I guess all of those who "know about a subject" have never had to ask for help or advice from anyone. Got knowledge? Then why not share it. It doesn't cost anything.

Hi. From experience I've found the Kahr in 9mm (although a great gun) had feeding issues with LSWC loads that sailed through a Glock 17/19 etc.. That doesn't mean you can't work up a LSWC load with time and care though. The sport is meant to be fun and "experimental" just so long as we stay on...

Might I ask what gun you are using and is it fitted with the original or aftermarket barrel (e.g. a Glock with original brl, Bar-Sto or Lonewolf etc.) Bullet profile and alloy, make-up, hardness? Does the barrel you intend to use have a short, medium or long leade and is the chamber subgun...

Hi Jim. I'm hoping the attached images (if I'm allowed to post them as a newbie) will give you a good idea of what the ammo was designed to do. I know of quite a number of Swedish K45 owners who have either the original training barrel or one of the "newer" but not so desirable US made barrels...

@ rc : with all due respect to your knowledge base: I'm puzzled as to why you took the time to post responses to my question. You've told me that my facts were incorrect and then (per Obscura) that I'm asking a question about an antique or curiosity in which you have no interest and don't...

@ Jim Watson : Jim thanks for the comment - please read my reply to an earlier post regarding barrel damage. There is an excellent video of the the GRIP-N-PULL in use on youtube. Search GRIP-N-PULL and view the 2:32 movie. They supply a steel tube to allow their tool to work with pistol...

@ rcmodel : Bakelite does no damage per se, but if this round is not fired using the correct M45 training barrel the bullet will (almost always) break up immediately upon firing and the steel ball literally bounces down the barrel and does peen (ruin) it. It has been my experience in an old test...

Thanks kyhunter for comment. If you look at my first post you'll see : I did tap the bullets back into the case (slightly and carefully) to break the sealant before attempting to pull them. Bakelite unfortunately is an early "plastic" (thermosetting phenol formaldehyde resin) which is...

@ Certaindeaf: Well thats one way of getting some empty used 9mm cases I but I have enough 9mm empties already - it's the full ones loaded up with my chosen metallic bullets and loads/powders that I'm looking to assemble using these ready primed cases ;) Berdan primers can of course be...

Firstly I'm new to the forum and hello to everyone. I'm Mike, retired, and hail from Colorado. I know there's been a thread or two on the Swedish 9mm kptr m/39 "plastic" bullet training ammo regarding pulling the bakelite bullets and reloading the Norma cases, however I can't find an answer...
