Yes they're within normal weights of 9mm. I was going to load on the lower end of powder weight due to what you were mentioning about higher pressures.

Can you use a .357 projectile in a 9mm casing? I seem to have ample amounts of .357 than 357 cases and would like to load them into 9mm cases if possible. To me .002" shouldn't make that much difference but I'd like someone else's opinion.

One of my slides got water on it and now has some surface level rust. Also trying to get the tight hard to reach areas clean as well.

To whom it may concern, I'm a little new to cleaning with an ultrasonic cleaner so forgive me if the questions sound dumb. Do you have to take sights off of guns to clean them in the fluid, I heard it will pull off the white paint from them. Also if I can put them in the fluid, can you place...

All advice being considered as suggested. I also appreciate the constructive criticism. All of this will help in the future. Thanks guys

I've loaded 9mm tons of times, but this is my first venture into 45acp. So I do appreciate all the advice. Thanks

So I recalibrated my scale and now I'm within 2 tenths of a grain variant of 6.4 for universal using a 185 gn JHP. However, there is a great possibility that there are seven round at roughly 7 grains. But the bottle says that the OAL should be about 1.195 and I'm actually running them longer at...

My apologies, these are 185 JHP. Preferably for self defense. I'm using my Lee disk powder charger but I can't get the perfect amount for either and was wondering whether it was better to go over the top with universal or under weight with BE-86.

I am trying to load 45 ACP and I am bouncing back and forth between two powders. Universal being at 6.4 and BE-86 being at 7.9. I know I can't get right on the money for those and the closet I could get with universal was 6.5. And the closet I could get with BE-86 was 7.25. What are your...

Thank you everyone. My fiance enjoys my security 9mm so I think I'll pass it onto her for her protection and use the XD as my carry. But I was wanting to make sure she could use it if she ever had to. Great help and I'll look into those deals.

Looking into purchasing a 45 acp. I have seen the Springfield XD mod 2 45 acp and found it appealing. I'm looking for carry and home defense. Needs to be able to fit large and small hands in case the wife needs it. Anyone know anything about this gun or have any other recommendations for other...

Thank you everyone for your help in making my choice. I have a lot of decisions to think over and through. Your opinions have been very influential. Thank you once again to all those who gave a word of advice.

Thank you everyone for the help. The feedback has helped my choice tremendously.

In addition I'd like something a little heavier for accuracy purposes. And in case I have a jam I can use it for a good hit.

Alot have asked for what purpose, and I say for carry occasionally and range/home defense the other times. Although I'd prefer nothing longer than a 4 inch barrel for the carrying part.

Looking into 357 magnum choices. Which is best, Smith and Wesson 686, Ruger GP100, or Kimber K6S?

Anyone one have any experience or critiques with the Kimber K6S 357 Magnum? Looking into purchasing one, just want to make sure it isn't a bad choice.

So it will just decrease the size of the fire ball? No help to accuracy or anything else?

Does a flash hider on an AR-15 truly make a difference? Looking into purchasing one, but I'd like to know if it has any true advantages over not having one.
