Lee Mold

[Floydster]

I am getting the Lee 356-120-TC bullet mold, can anyone point me to a good starting load for my 9mm CZ's.
I will be using 50/50/ wheel weight-pure lead and a touch of tin sizing to .357, and using 45/45/10 lube.
Thanks for input.

Plenty of 125gr loads listed here, they will work fine for the 120gr TC.

i'd try something on the slow end for the 9 for what you have in mind.
unique comes to mind.
i'd keep the velocities in the 900 range to start from and work up.

That may be a little soft of an alloy for 9mm. Please let us know how it does.

I've been using that Lee bullet out of a 6 cavity mould over 4 gr Bullseye in numerous 9mm for several years now including my own CZ75. Excellent bullet, excellent accuracy and an excellent handgun. I use WWs + 2% tin and javelina lube. If the 50/50 alloy does prove too soft try it with just WWs + 2 % tin.

Using the same mold for boolits for my CZ too.

I run the boolits through my .357" star die and lube with BAC.

Using a 16lb Wolf recoil spring, I am using 3.3gn of AP70N / Hodgdon Universal with very good accuracy.

This bullet also works very well in my CZ75B and my Star BM
