Got my 356-125-2r today

[chris in va]

Once I found out these drop at 360, I decided to switch from the problematic 358-125-rf in my P01. Got them sized and tumble lubed, will shoot a few next week. Hopefully they will feed better than the RF design, plus I don't have to seat them so darn deep and can use different powder charges.

They pass the clink test at 1.08.

Ummmm.....Uhhhh..... I may be showing my ignorance, but what do you mean by "they pass the clink test at 1.08"? I have a Luger that doesn't like the rf, the 2r feeds great, hope yours work as well for you.

I think Chris is talking about dropping a loaded round in the chamber (removed from the gun) to be sure it drops in to the correct depth. Mike

Have had excellent results with 356-125-2R in my CZ 75B. Mine drop at .360+ and 126~127 gr. I size to .358 with WL 2500+ lube. My MAX COAL is 1.067 and I load to OAL 1.055. Since the boolit OAL for 356-125-2R is .565 I use the Lyman 4th Ed. load data for RCBS 9mm 124-CN which has a boolit OAL of .575 and a specified COAL of 1.050. The most accurate loads I've found for 356-125-2R in my CZ are Red Dot 3.8 and Blue Dot 5.8.

The only 9mm mold I have that drops large enough to use in the 9mm.
Been using the LEE 125 gr. RF as well.

Thanks, can't wait to load some of these up tonight. 1.08" might be a bit long then, will fool around with various OAL to see what my P 01 likes.
