OK, I have a Lee 6 banger, 356-120-TC that my 9's really love, it's a TL and it works reasonably well in my Taurus 92 and Beretta 92. My first batches dropped measured at about 0.3575. My 9's like 0.358, so I thought this was a little shy (occasional, mild leading) and decided to add a little tin, keep the temp at 720, run the mold a little colder than normal, and do a little "pressure pouring."
OK, now my mold is dropping at 0.3600" (4 significant figures). I will size to .358. However, is .360 too high?
What is normal? (I am not making large boolits by squeezing the sprue plate handle! (My other 9 mold, a Lee 6'er, is 356-124-2R and drops at 0.3585," my guns do not like this boolit very much.)
BTW, both barrels slug out to 0.3565."
too big?
