I am feeding the SD9VE. I expect the barrel is the same. I use both Lee 356-120-TC (COAL = 1.07) and TL356-124-TC (COAL 1.115), sized to .357 with a typical load of 4.3-4.4 grains Unique. The 356-120-TC gets lubed with White Label 50/50 while the TL356-124-TC gets LLA, 2 coats, one before and after sizing. Both work like a champ with no leading. I get a little antimony wash since I'm typically using just COWW with 2-3% tin alloy, but it brushes right out with 2-3 passes.

I feed my Sigma 124 LRN and 124 LTC both are sized to .358 and sitting on top of HP-38 or W231. Works good.

Can anyone speak to the choice between round nose and truncated cone designs?
Thanks

My SD9ve seems to work with everything so far. it just shoots it all. It doesn't seem picky at all about the ammo. I did break down and install a Apex trigger spring kit in it though. I just couldn't stand the horrid trigger pull arrangement that it had from the factory.
