My recipe from the Lee manual for 9mm 124 gr. copper plated calls for a minimum OAL of 1.100 with AA#7, does it matter if I use round nose or flat point? I ordered flat point Berry's and loaded them at 1.155 OAL.
Bullet nose "shape" will determine your maximum oal for 'that' bullet in "your" gun. It can be different in different guns.
There are a number of posts that give techniques for finding the max oal for 'your' gun for each different bullet shape and manufacturer you're reloading.
Most Manuals give or show the bullet shape or description. The Lee manual is pretty vague but is a wealth of info overall. Another reason for having multiple manuals to check and cross reference.
