Just received some eggleston 125 grain coated rn bullets for 9mm. I loaded a dummy round for my cz-75 and decided to post the pictures on my concerns/questions.
The oal had to be extremely short (1.050) to pass the plink test. The bullet has an extremely long bearing surface and a short blunt rn.
The picture has the dummy round, a 124 xtreme plated rn loaded to 1.135, sized cases sitting on top of the coated and a 124 xtreme rn for comparison.
I am thinking of loading some up with 4.2 cfe pistol which is below starting but for the short oal it would be safe load.
What does everyone think of the short oal? I have other 9's but always load for the shortest chamber since I don't want "gun" specific loads for plinking.
