Hello all!

I have a XD9 I would like to start casting for.I will probably use the Lee 125 grain Round Nose 90457 (6 cavity).It is my understanding that the XD perfers round nose due to feeding ramp issues. Is this bullet a tumble lube only or is it designed to use a stick lube? Anyone have any experience using this bullet?

I have an XD9 sub-compact and it will eat 105gr semi wadcutters all day long. Check threads for the Lee 358-105. I think you would be very happy with it. I am also loading .380 and .38/.357 and it does well in everything. You get a lot of boolits out of a little lead and pretty quick too with a six banger.

My 5" XD9 likes the RCBS 124TC or the Lyman 120RN real well.
