Lee 105 SWC and 9mm

[Jal5]

I had some success today with a trial of this Lee boolit which runs 100-101 with my range scrap + 2% tin. I am shooting it over Bullseye in a wartime P38. Found a nice load about midrange, shooting at 10 yds. I had 3 cloverleaf and the other two touching a couple of inches below that. Best I ever shot with this gun including using manufactured bullets. Not bad, needs a little more practice. :-)

That mold is the first one I ever bought, worked very well in my Browning HP for many
years. Great design, really a mini H&G 68 type design scaled down for 9mm. Feeds well
and is accurate. What is not to like?

You chose a great one, glad it is working for you. I have a P1 but haven't tried this one
in it yet, I've been mostly using the Lee 356-120-TC in the last few years.

A guy gave me some one time and they were cast very bad , the Lee 105 grs. But I got very tight groups with them in my custom 1911 colt, I got the the mold and sized alot of them to .355, They leaded and grouped bad, Today I cast up 400 + and going to try them at .357, Got high hopes for them and also got the Lee 124 gr. mold now and will size them at .357, Now got a Kimber targer 2 in 9 MM and hoping itll be a good shooter . how much B.eye are you using, I used 4.7, Thanks- Joe

They have shot good in everything I have tried them in from 380-357. Good little plinker.

They don't always seat when cycling. One has to smack the back of the slide. Other than that,
they group well.
