My new concealed carry gun. Shoots like a dream. Will be ordering stuff to reload and cast 9mm in the next day or 2. The shield slugs at .3555, wifey's M&Pc slugs at .3545. Will I need 2 sizer dies or will .357 work for both?

You're set at .357.
I have a shield too, it's mostly replaced my J frames as my constant companion.

i have a s&w that slugs at .354 and a ruger that slugs at .357 , they both eat them at .358 without complaint , i just keep the charge modest 4.5 gr of power pistol is doing well under a Lee 356-124TC

I size all of my 9mm & 38 super cast bullets @.357 dia ! and the barrels i checked were match barrels from Nowlin & Kart which measured .355 but shot the best with bullets sized @.357 .I didnot measure my 2 other guns barrels just use .357 in all with good acuracy & no leading

That is on my 'will own' list. I may get a 6906 first, but that's just me. ;)

I bought the first 9mm Shield my local dealer recieved and couldn't be happier! It shoots like a dream and has digested EVERYTHING I've tried in it without the first hiccup.
