SWC in Beretta 92

I recently started casting some .38 special 105 grain semi wadcutters, and am fine tuning it.  Looking for feedback specifically from Beretta 92 owners on this one.  My barrel slugs at .357 for reference.

 

What's the distance from the shoulder of the SWC to the bottom of the case you're using?  While mine run at lower charges, they tend to start choking at higher charges (may need stronger recoil spring, alas).  At lower charges I can feel every round clunking along the process into the chamber, it's not as smooth as feeding at higher charges (when they don't choke).

 

Specs are Lee 105 grain .358 SWC, Winchester 231 powder (best accuracy at 4.1 and 4.5 grains - 4.1 sluggish/clunks along), and OAL of 1.060.

I have seen several posts on the Cast Boolits website about using that bullet in 9mm pistols, but I can not remember if it was in the Beretta 92.  Because I saw others using it in semi auto 9mm pistols, I bought one of these molds, but I have not used it yet.
