Quick review on my new NOE 356-135FR
Been looking for a new 9mm mold, and this one fits the bill perfectly.
I am very happy with this mold.:drinks:
I am firmly entrenched in powder coating, so the lack of a lube groove is a plus.8-)
plus, they drop out with ease.
they drop at 133grs with 6Sb/2Sn/92Pb. Sized to .356 with the LEE die
I worked up a load with Alliant SPORT PISTOL powder on my trusty Dillon 650
3.6gr
976.8fps
ES-31
SD-10.7
3.7gr
989.7fps
ES-28
SD-10.3

I always cast and coat in the cold dry winter air, this is the first time I've powdercoated in the humid spring WX, and it shows, Smokes Carolina Blue doesn't look as smooth as usual. they still shot very well.
