Anyone here shoot the Lee 9mm 124 gr. tumble lube truncated cone?
It looks like the shoulder is minimal so shouldn't have trouble feeding.

I use the regular Lee 356-124-TC which has pretty much the same nose profile. I shoot it in several 9mm handguns and have shot it in a couple subguns with no feed problems what so ever. I would expect the TL bullet to do the same.

It works fine for me.

I also use this boolit... have shot it in several handguns without problems.

If you have feeding problems try changing the COL.

Works in all my 9MMs. Everything from a 1940 German Luger to a MPA Mac11 with zero problems..

i have that mold and just an hour ago i finished up casting about 900 of them

their as cast diameter with WW is running .359 to .360. I'm currently running a group of about 600 of them through a lee .358 die before tumble lubing them (i use lyman case resize lube on the bullets before i send them through the sizer)

I haven't loaded any of them YET into either .38 special or 9mm cases (the 9mms will be sized .356 unlike the .38s)

The TL mold gives me nice boolits sized at about .360 and 127gr. They shoot as cast thru both of my 9MMs and as a bonus they work as a light .357/38Sp.

Mine are tapered, .357" on the top band and .360" on the bottom one.

I love the TC ! You do know the ORIGINAL 9MM Parabellum round AS IT WAS CONCEIVED for THE LUGER was the TC

Cuts nice neet holes in the toggets too!

I use this mold too and it casts very goods boolits. I don't size them, only tumble lube and shoot :Fire:

No kidding.......didn't know that. I do know the TC design works VERY well in all the autopistols I've tried it in, from 30/32 calibers to the 45 ACP. I'm another fan of the Lee TCs, in conventional trim rather than TL.
