I was hoping someone might chime in on the most generic 9mm load they know of. I have a Lee 125 grain 2r round nose mold that I like, and I just got a 120 grain TC mold from Lee because of the bigger lube groove and bevel base. I use Winchester 231 because I can use it in my 45 acp, 38 special, 380, and the 9mm as well.
I know how to work up accurate loads, I know how to work up a load that works for a specific pistol or revolver, but what I am trying to do here is work something up that will work in a Keltec or a Kimber, no hiccups, no problems.
I have the final size or factory crimp die and that helps a lot. I am sizing .357. I have some pure lead, some apparent Lyno, and wheel weights. At this point I wished I could get a darn gas check! [smilie=b: SO far I have been stymied at every turn, although the 120 TC is looking good in most all the guns I and my friends have. I have even dabbled with Cream of Wheat filler with some success. Does anyone know much about the plastic buffer for shot shells? Will it also clean a bore? I know it would seal a bore and prevent blow by. It ought to really help with leading. I also thought of using used tumbler media. It ought to seal and somewhat scrub the bore.
