I've been unable to find any 9mm load data for the NOE 358-135 bullet. Does anyone have a recommendation regarding powders, charges and LOA? Thanks in advance for your help!

Are they dropping at 135gr?

They are looking pretty close. I just cast the first 200 or so. A sample of about a dozen was 137 - 138 gr. Going to use them in a Beretta 92 with a 0.356" bore. Sizing bullets to 0.357". BHN is about 15. I figured I could always start with powder charges for a 147 grain bullet but I'd really like OAL info' and some specific experience with this bullet to test myself against.

Ok. I'm using a very similar boolit (accurate 130gr rf). Having very good results with 4.0 grains of HP38 seated at 1.075 and 934fps out of a short barrel

I believe there is info for 135 grain lead bullets in Lee's manual. I think that's where I found the load data that I use.
