ok so ive been having trouble with leading in my 9mm and decided to try Smokes jet black powder.coverage was pretty good even tho i forgot to use the BBs, these small bullets are difficult to stand on end.The size increased to .358-359.from .356 without coating.would yall suggest i size them now at .358 to round them up?

I would size them for the size your gun wants (slug your barrel). sounds like you got a real heavy coat, i've gone up that much with 2 coats just to see if I could, you may want to try some with the bb's because when you size down to whatever your gun likes, sizing down a lot could cause deformities that cause erratic flights.
