What do you Cast/size your 9mm powdercoated bullets to?
(Dont tell me to slug my barrel, this is not the question. My barrel is 357 if you care that much.).
My question is how do you size, before, after, and to what diameter, and how much over your slug.
So answers I am looking for would be:
"I cast out of a 356 mold, and then PC, and then size to 357."
And honestly, this is probably what I am going to try to do. I'll cast some and then test 356, 357, 358....
Since 358 gives the occasional FTF, I guess that if 357 works I'll keep it there.
Cast out of a .356 mold(approx .3575), then powdercoat, and then size to .357?
or do you cast, size to 356, powdercoat, and keep it that way? or re-size to 356?
or what?
Since they tend to not lead, I guess pushing it at .358 is not a plus ?
Since most barrels are 357, why are 9mm plated bullets 355 or 356 anyway?
