    Those prices are reasonable if selling individually. Offloading the entire lot to someone and realizing those prices probably isn't going to happen unless you get real lucky.

    I think revolvers are just more practical for big bores. They are much more versatile when it comes to loads and bullet selection. .460 S&W can chamber anything from 45 Colt to rounds 2,400 FPS...

    Are you sure it's key holing? Slower moving bullets will tear paper more than faster bullets and can look kind of like keyholing.

    I have a 175 WC that I have used with N320, Unique and Titegroup in a S&W 25-5

    6.0 to 6.5 N320 has worked the best. Velocities are 660 to 733
    6.5 Unique was 720 FPS
    6.0 TG was 775 FPS

    Lead wouldn't well for weight lifting. Weights get dropped and such and would get deformed.

    What molds do you have?

    My favorite is a NOE 311-195-RF. My 311299 also works well and is a little heavier but hasn't been as accurate for me. The Lee 230 grain bullet built for 300 BLK has not...

    More important than crimp, is making sure the bullets fit your cylinder throats. Crimp will kind of be irrelevant shooting 9mm in a 986.

    I was kind of interested in one until reading about how it’s only marginally more powerful than a .44 Mag. The 350 Legend losses its luster out of a shorter barrel.

    Dead soft might be fine for light powder puff loads. However your typical 9mm bullets aren't going to cycle a gun at with low velocities unless you're running 147 or 158 grain bullets.

    125 grain subsonic is basically a 38 special load. Do you have pistol powders? 2207 is not an ideal powder for that load.
