I size all my bullets regardless of caliber but especially in 9mm. There are so many variables in brass & final bullet size that sizing just saves headaches in reloading. I bought a Lee APP for bullet sizing, very fast & cheap.

Does anyone cast boolits for PC that are slightly undersized relative to lube style boolits?

I’m thinking about getting a mold from Accurate, sized to groove diameter, and then letting the PC bring the final result up 0.002” over groove dia.
Yes. When I ordered my molds from Accurate I take into account the PC thickness and spec them accordingly.
Just remember that if it says +/- .002 then whatever the minimum is should still be OK with you.

Depends on what size the mould throws & desired end size.
I will size before & after coating to ensure the correct size. Others will only be before coating & for one (38S&W in a Webley) only after coating.
Maybe a better question is do you buy bullets for a 38 Special to load in your 9mm? Do you buy.303 bullets to load your 30/06? Why not, because it is the same reasoning or lack thereof.
