    Thanks for the tip, the monster under my bench swallowed a small can of Redding sizing lube two weeks ago, I still can't find it. Perhaps i'll call it a sacrifice and install a similar mod.

    Thank you for that, I am looking for a .25ACP bullet for range only work. The 50-RF might be the ticket. Those little bullets in plated or jacketed have been very hard to find.

    I have used the LEE 102gr and had to seat it deep to feed in a Bersa, 0.930 OAL, I have heard good things about the LEE 95gr bullet and plan to order one of those for the next attempt at 380.

    Glad to hear the 95gr is working, I am not happy seating the 102 as deep as I had to and opted for Hornady XTP's for the wife to shoot with. 100 rounds last her all month in 380, not so much for me.
