Thank you. It was good to meet you. Good luck with the new bullets. Watch for the oblong holes.
For dimensions, search this site for 'xtreme' look for the 9mm test review.
For the precision delta bullet, go to the 'xtp project' thread.

on your xtp project your LOA is 1.060" but the load data i showed u is 1.110. which one should i follow?

1.060 with the PRECISION DELTA BULLET will simulate factory dimension spec for hornady xtp ammo.
1.100 with the XTREME PLATED HP is about the correct oal for that bullet.

ok. thanks. i will try make it close to your LOA since im using tru blue with 6.0 gr instead of 5.5 gr

aloha everyone, i just received my lee pro auto disk powder measure  and lee adjustable charge bar. it meters my Ramshot True Blue better. still calibrating to 5.9 gr. but it seems like it hard to get the right gr i want. always like 5.8 or 6.0 gr

Congrats on your reloading setup.
Nice workbench.
I see your hammer too.

well i guess im goin to stick on 5.8 safer than 6.0 since my max is 6.1 gr

yes. i got my frankford bullet puller and its not fun to redo 35 casing. it was under charged before tp 5.2 gr. very low to min of 5.7 gr of true blue

I'd like to take a look at that and do some measurements

the FC stamp brass seat perfect but FC NT stamp seems like a narrow hole to seat the small primer

so i measured the primer pocket of 3 type of brass. speer 9mm =0.174", FC stamp 9mm= 0.173", and FC NT 9mm= 0.168"

I just read a post on ar15.com from 2009 describing that problem. Small pocket diameter.
Toss it. Then look in your brass bucket for more.
There was a similar problem with some 45acp brass using small primers instead of standard large.

I have run into the small primer pocket problem with some brands of brass. I have tried reaming as well as other things so I didn't waste the brass. It was so much trouble I tossed every piece that isn't loaded.

i was bored today and nothing to reload. so i decided to tumble my brother's .223 and .308 brass. it came out nice and shinny.

i sucks at shooting.
