Light defensive load for 38sp with AXR

[Lokichoki]

Are you still talking about 38spc? Cause your asking for a 38spc loading for 9mm projectile right now by going through this and stating you didn't see load data. If so The diameter difference in the projectile while small does not work well with 38sp dies, you will probably have to crimp heavily or maybe run the top of the 38 case into a 9mm die to get it closer to the .355" diameter. I know I've used .308 for 7.62x54R and x39 before with mixed results but there is a special neck sizer for doing just that

I read thru this and do not see any suggestions for a 65 gr, ARX 9mm round, I found a box of them and might as well shoot em, any suggestions? I have BE86, Unique and Bullseye. Thx

Also start a new thread or look it up personally because that info is everywhere but this really old thread that your jumping in on isn't a great way to ascertain the info you want

My statistics are completely made up to make a point...

99% of the people will never be in a person on person crime, of those....
99% will never have to draw a weapon, of those....
99% will draw but never fire, of those....
99% will fire, hit and stop, of those....
will run into that stupid low fraction that requires real engagement...multiple rounds, etc.

Your likelihood of shooting is very small. Most of us prepare for the worst imaginable, not reality. Carry, if you choose. Practice routinely. Accurate hits matter much more than caliber.....

Heck, with those odds, I'm selling my pistol and buying myself a steak dinner and 400 Lotto tickets.
