I am considering to buy the mihec 359 hollowpoint mold for my Tanfoglio stock 2 and my cz sp01 shadow. I am wondering if it will expand. I am using the mihec 147 grain solid boolit for them. I am using wheelweights and heat treated. I am worried that to cast them hard enough to stand the pressure of the 9mm that they will not expand. Anyone experimenting with this mold could you tell me if works?

Sure they will expand . . . depending on alloy and speed . . . what alloy are you using?

Don't use straight WWs. The bullets will most likely fracture and break off the nose if you get them to expand at all. Try cutting the WW with an equal parts of pure lead and see where that gets you.
