I shoot the Lee 105 SWC in my .380 so it should work in the 9mm.

My two favorites for cast 9mm are both Lee, both in the 120 grain range and both traditional lube groove: their TC and their RN. I've just had consistently better performance with the 120 grain family.

I found the 358242 121 gr version outshoots the 356402 in the 9's I have owned. There really is very little diference.

I like to shoot the LEE .356 - 102gr RN in my 380ACP and 9mm. They shoot good and there fun to go out to the range and just shoot. I can cast a lot of them in just a few hours

When someone asks about SWC, maybe the answers should include SWCs?
Personally, I spit on LRN and only put up with L-RNFP is I absolutely have to (which I don't).
The SAECO #924 124gn SWC and the SAECO #383 140gn SWC.
I have a lot of fun with the Lee 357-105-SWC, but the SAECOs are more accurate in a wide range of 9x19s.

Lyman 358429
72554
This bullet cast 168grs from my WW alloy and shot behind 2.7grs on AA#2. Very accurate and super low recoil

I have the 358429 listed in my Lyman 46th edition but it doesn't give me the bullet length itself. So would you mind measuring one of your bullets and giving me the length?
Thanks

Not a problem I know it off of the top of my head its .745

Why its so easy to remember is the case is .754 and the bullet is .745 just flip the last two numbers.

One in the middle, 4 hole or 5 hole.

I ordered his handles too, glad i paid extra for em,, they are built like a tank, And pinned, and brass capps help to disipate the heat away from wood tips.
