Starting a new thread here to detail some information on this project.
Pistol is an XD MOD.2 9x19 with 3" barrel.
First try was to just case the Lee bullets from 50-50 COWW and and indoor range scrap, powder coat with Smoke's bacon grease baked at 450F in convection toaster oven for 25 minutes and air cooled. Loaded some rounds on an Dillon RL550B using Dillon dies.
Results were dismal...bullets keyholing and minute of Volkswagon accuracy at 25 yards.
Pulled a seated bullet and discovered that the Dillon .353 expander plug leaving case mouths about .351 ID was causing the bullet to be swaged down to .353 on the base band when seating bullets.
