OK,
Since we are on the same page reference the cause of the rub mark, why are you suggesting a reduction in OAL? A correctly loaded round will have some of the full diameter bullet shank portruding past the case mouth. This allows the bullet to align itself better with the bore centerline. The freebore supports the bullet shank and the leade supports the bullet ogjive.
If the OP reduces his OAL to the point the bullet shank is no longer in the freebore, his bullet will have to overcome several obstacles: A shorter OAL changes the feed angle from the magazine and reduces reliability. It raises pressures and forces the OP to go outside published load data. It forces the bullet to jump into the freebore from a more severe angle, causing inherent instability- it will wobble down the bore and will be less accurate.
Now, if his slide goes into battery at a longer OAL, that OAL should be used despite the rub marks.
If the slide does not go into attery, the bullet diameter should be reduced.
For example, I used to have a Wilson CQB .45 ACP. It would not accept a 200gr Laser Cast SWC @ 1.250" OAL. The part of the .4525" bullet shank portruding past the case mouth would not enter the freebore and the slide would not go into battery. I ran these .4525" bullets through a Lee .451" die and they were swaged down to .4515". These loaded to the same OAL went into battery just fine. Now, I could have seated the Laser Casts, as is, to a shorter OAL, but that would have compromised reliability and would have caused leading due to bullet shaving upon entry into the freebore. No, I loaded them correctly and they worked correctly.
The OP should do the same with his 9mm, i.e. load them correctly and not take shortcuts. Loading RN bullets under 1.100" in the 9mm is not right. These short OAL's are meant for TC profiles.
