.355 or .356 for 9mm?

[murph]

I have always used .955 projectiles to load for 9mm, but can I interchange them with .956? I haven't reloaded in quite a while and am starting to accumulate supplies now. Thanks

Heh. A .955 caliber handgun.

Basically the same. You could even run .357s without issue as long as they don't expand the case too much and still chamber.

.355 for copper jacketed.

.356 for copper plated and commercial cast lead with single lube groove. I have used .357 plated very successfully in my Glock 17.

If you cast your own, good luck with Lee Tumble Lube Truncated Cone 124 grain bullets. They drop at around .355 with Wheel weight lead and keyhole badly in my pistols.

I shoot 356 and 357 cast bullets in a variety of 9mm pistols. Never tried 355 lead.

I've been shooting powder coated cast bullets. They are averaging .3555" shoots fine outta my shadow. 69$/1000 bullets
