    You might check out Mihec's 125gr 9mm bullet, or the 147gr. They're NICE. I used to load plated or FMJ mostly with 9mm. But since I bought these molds it's pretty much what I stick with now.

    Lots of good bullets for the .38/.357 exist. My personal favorites are the Lyman 358477 and 358311. I'll load either over 5.0gr of Unique for a VERY accurate load.
