I was wondering if anyone has used that bullet (102 RN) in the 9mm Luger. I have used the Lee 90316 (105 SWC), but it will sometimes not feed in my Taurus 99AF. I would use the load for plinking cans and using 3.5 grains of Bullseye or Red Dot.

I am not sure about the 102 RN but the 105 SWC feeds fine in my Taurus 92AFS. I seat them at 1.05" OAL. Very accruate.

I have used it and I get jams every so often..the only bullet that will jam in my pistol.

What load do you use with yours?

I use the TC TL Lee mould 122 grain and its very accurate. I do get a little leading on the muzzle end though. 13 out of 15 in a 4 inch group. Always seem to get a couple stray ones. I haven't figured out why. I load it with 3.6 grains of unique. They cycle through my Ruger P95 just fine.

I like the tl 124 rn (like jluchto1 said mine weigh out a about 122). Good accuracy a little leading but nothing chore boy can't handle in seconds. Never, ever (in about 1500 rds) had a faulure to feed in my 9s.

I use that one in 9mm and 380, works well. I use Titegroup and had to work up a load that would cycle my 9mm's, the 380 works with the starting load.

I am using the Lee TL356-124-2R with 4 grains of Bullseye in a Glock 19 and a Sig. Both guns fire and cycle flawlessly. That powder is a bit smokey though. Leading is minimal. Lubed with Lee Alox. BHN is unknown but the alloy is outdoor range lead which seems to be pretty hard. I can barely notice an indent when scratching with my fingernail.

I like 4.5 grs of Titegroup in the 105 SWC.

I tried a batch of the Lee 90305 in my Ruger SS Blackhawk (has a spare 9mm cylinder)--using 4.0 grains of Red Dot. I had not been shooting for two months---I set up a 12 ounce steel can at 40' and aimed at the can...slowly pulled the trigger, the bullet hit right under the base of the can propelling it a good 30'+ into the air--a most delightful sight...when it landed I did the same. Again it was propelled high into the air. I hit that can with all six shots..what a nice bullet/load!
