I think blue bullets are more similar to syntech than hi-tek coated boolits. But blue bullets have a long wait time right now. I have two orders & I can't even remember if it was summer2020 or fall2020 when I placed them.

Math & physics can absolutely be argued.

I had both in 9mm & I can't tell the difference. They both came in the same red Lee plastic container; even the sku/part# on the label were the same I think.

Like Sarge said, you can still print on 8.5x14, just choose "actual size" & you'll just have extra blank length.

I feel like I more control over the gun with finger hooking the trigger guard, but I have to readjust when there's a weapon light in the way.

I assume it's legal -- Ben Stoeger been doing it for at least 10 seasons.

Owie. Did it explode while you were cranking the handle -- loading ammo? Or while dropping in the primer rod? Do you think there were accumulated yellow primer dusts in the tube? What primers were you using? I also want to make sure this doesn't happen to me.

At that price, you may as well just get the Lyman pro dies instead. $188 still in stock. https://benstoegerproshop.com/lyman-pro-reloading-die-pack-set/

Explaining Practical Shooting

Yep, could've been any other gun. I can take the pretravel out of my Glock34 to the point that it's not drop safe even with an intact firing pin block. Or a p320 can go off with an intact FPB with the old triggers. I believe with some springs & an aftermarket trigger, I can make a CZ P01 go off even with an intact FPB just from the inertia of the trigger.

You can probably sell the HAP 115gr on a bullseye shooting forum. I heard the 115gr going 1,200fps was their goto load for 9mm 50 yards.

I don't mind it. 'cause the highest score of the game is the winner. If you don't know where you stand, then you're shooting blind; which is fine if you're just participating. I don't want to play basketball for an hour & the score isn't revealed 'til the end.

Your other option is the kensight. The notches for both the dawson & kensight are .85 deep. I think the dawson doesn't require as tall of a front sight like the kensight does.

I think they're fine for 9major. Especially since I use a custom machined flat faced decapping pin.

Should I start selling once fired primers? $30/1000

Do you have a chronograph or access to one? You can start 3.0gr, 3.1gr, 3.2gr & see how fast it goes over the chrono.

I had the same experience with Black Bullets International. Ordered a case of 115gr & received within a week. They may as well be FBI for Fast Bullets International. =P

I think: BB = Blue Bullets BBI = Black Bullets International

I use mine for pistols. I don't remember if there's a special collet size for 35 cal. I had issues with SWC bullets. It works fine on blue & hitek coated bullets.

Yea. 9mm blazer going for 40 cents a round on gunbroker. LOL.

My standard unmodded 9mm lee die only had that primer pull back happen like 1 in 20,000 rounds. But the lee universal decapper has that pull back problem like 1/4 of the time. I had to do the chisel mod. I don't understand why one die doesn't have a problem & the other one does; when both pin had the same profile.

A gallon of 100% IPA is like $10 at a beauty supply store.

I have this pre-ignition flinch issue when coming back from a long break. Usually it goes away by the third live fire session. Sometime you just need a lot of rounds down range.

I just keep increasing the striker spring 'til the problem goes away.
