Can someone tell me what the best overall length my 9mm reloads with a LEE TL356-124-2R cast bullet would be? This is not the truncated cone; it's 2 Ogive, not perfect Round Nose. This is not the Lee 125-2R mold. The Lee Precision part numbers for the mold are 90465 and 90464.
I plan to use it with my Smith & Wesson M&P full size and 995TS Hi-point carbine as well as other guns.
1.125" (with 3.5 of Bullseye) is what I plan to do my first batch at so far.
Please don't tell me to drop it in my barrel, I'd like these to work with other guns too, unless you have specific information that the 995ts has special COL needs. Also please don't tell me my Hi-Point is junk. I'm looking for similar to "factory" length and loads.
Bonus points if you can tell me what manual(s) have load data with COL for this mold's bullets.
I'm looking for someone that has actually loaded bullets with this specific mold (and used them in a 995ts hopefully).
I have read http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?121144-OAL-for-Lee-TL356-124-2R, but The author seems to only use pistols, no mention of 995ts. Also the COL of 1.10 is the shortest I've seen in my research so far. That's going to put a lot of the bullet in the case. Also the pictures in that thread are weird (must be the lube) and its really hard for me to see what the finished ammo looks like. Would like to see other pictures of what the COL looks like loaded with the rings on the bullet.
