Hi everyone, this is my first post. I’m brand spanking new to reloading. Just got my first press setup, Dillon XL750.
Bought some Berry’s 115gr. FMJ bullets and CFE pistol powder.
I haven’t made a live yet, but was setting up the dies. Went on Hodgdon’s website, and according to their data, they list the OAL at 1.100”. Maybe I’m just used to shooting 124gr factory bullets that I’d buy from Walmart...but I swear I’m overseating the bullet. But it looks fine....just small. Hodgdon only shows the OAL at 1.100” and that’s it. No minimum or maximum. Is this what I should go with?
I don’t have a reloading book, and I know I should. But I thought I could get away with using Hodgdon’s handy loading data on their website. Thanks in advance
