New to reloading but have been loading 115g Xtreme plated RN using Power Pistol for my 9mm Shield. (OAL = 1.160", 6.0 - 6.2g) with good results. Decided to try reloading Bullseye. Found the following load data for Bullseye;
Lyman: 115g JHP, OAL=1.090", 3.5-4.8g. 120g cast, OAL=1.065" 3.4-4.2g.
Lee: 115g XTP, OAL=1.125, 4.1-4.7g.
Since I could not find any load data for my bullet, I loaded #10 rounds using 4.0g Bullseye with several different OAL's, varying from 1.098" to 1.126". Fired the shortest round and the bullet plugged my barrel. Removed it but went back to shooting my PP rounds. I did not try the rest of the Bullseye loads. So, are my loads too light or was the OAL too short?
