shoot it till you loose it or see issues
last summer i loaded the same cases 27 times only a few split
none developed loose primer pockets (actually they got to tight)
after 15ish loading's most would have stopped loading those cases.
Would you mind giving your load for your brass test.

Sport pistol is just as good in all aspects except maybe not as clean but half the cost.

I took a old kitchen knife and heated it red hot with a propane torch worked very well ,after cutting you can work the edges and around the cut to tidy it up. For the holes I used the same method with a old Phillips screw driver. I made mine several months back and it still looking good.

I was shooting the 124 gr.match winner in my shadow 2 at 1.085 oal with 4.2 grs. of sport pistol very accurate bullet /load. I bought a open gun with a comp so I switched to delta Precision with a jacketed base to keep from leading the comp another good bullet. You can’t go wrong with the match winners.
-
Next time I buy lead bullets I may give the j-Ames bullets a try, looked at their website and they look like some good bullets.

Wanting opinions on best loads 9mm for plate rack shooting. Bullet wt.? FPS? Power factor?
I know to stout of loads slow you down and to weak of loads sometimes don’t knock down the plate with poor hits.
-
Us1 this may not be your problem but it sounds like your machine is not mounted rigid enough, needs to be mounted very solid with no movement or shacking going on when you are using it.

I’ve had the same problem with the die sticking.lay your brass on its side in and old cooking pan and spray it with Hornady case lube, a little will get in the case mouth which will stop the case sticking issue. This worked for me good luck.

I would go with be-86 also that’s what I use for those type of loads.

I’ve used 6grs of power pistol with 124 gr bullets for years, has been very accurate load in several different pistols never noticed any fire balls in that day time lol. I got some b-86 several months back and it seems just as good as power Pistol just takes a bit less of it. Both will give top end velocity.

As others have said, 13# main spring should light anything, but I would put in the extended firing pin with reduced power FP spring just to be safe.
This is what I did and it’s been going strong for a year and a half maybe two years now with cci,rem.

Graf and sons has some 1 pounders ,I think they was 21.95 a pound. If you got some other hazardous components to order that would help the fees. I usually buy a eight pounder and some primers when I order and that gets the price down.

This is some of the better loads, all with sport pistol. I tested these loads with a 1x4 scope just for testing I now have a red dot on the rifle. Just about everything I’ve shot in it has been good enough for most applications. Everything I tested was mild loads nothing on the hot side.
My ruger rifle has been outstanding zero malfunctions and very accurate.

This is what I got from a Glock 21 and e-3.
e-3 powder 3.6 grs cci-300
225 gr bayou flat point. 1.225 oal rem. Brass
fps 757 es 82. Sd 34
Ran the same bullet and everything the same with red dot
red dot 4.5 grs 799/45/20
I have been playing with e-3 in 9mm and 45 acp and so far I have been getting high extreme spreads with e-3 but j have been getting good accuracy. I have also been playing with red dot in 45 acp with 200 gr swc and 225 fp and have been getting better crony readings with good accuracy.

Our cold weather don’t compare to Wisconsin’s cold but man we got some hot weather that will make you want to stay inside.

I forgot to mention that I have my handle in the shortest position.
-
Assnolax i mounted mine on a 1/4” al plate to spread the load a little about 3/8” from the edge. Haven’t heard of anybody shorting the stroke I don’t think you’ll notice 10 degrees once you start loading.

Thanks for the video you have helped me learn some good info.

Do you get leading with brazos?
I got decent leading with their 124s with Titegroup.
On their recommendation, trying sample pack of 147s on sport pistol, (they recommend clean shoot, but I dont have any)
If you are getting the sample pack go with .357 dia. That’s what I did to stop leading.

Ok, if I can find a tig welder to weld up the hole(s), the replacement hole is going to overlap the old hole. Am I going to have to worry about the weld being harder or softer than the base stainless (whatever lone wolf makes their SS slides out of)?
Tell the welder what you wanting to do he will know the right filler material to use.

I was in the same boat wanting to add something to speed up my loading on my 550. I ended up getting a used 1050 and it has been so nice it’s put the joy back into loading for me. My advice is to keep the 550 stock and save your pennies for a 650 or a 1050 with a case feeder and bullet feeder for the cal.that you shooting the most.

My shadow 2 loads are.
145 r/n brazos .357 dia. 1.115 oal
3.3 grs sport pistol
i used 3.2 grs for a long time and switched to 3.3 because I felt like it runs a little cleaner and I really didn’t notice much difference in the recoil.
147 f/p acme .356 dia 1.11 oal
3.3 grs sport pistol
these bullets plunked at 1.13 but I got better accuracy off the lands a little at 1.11 oal.
124 gr Precision delta 1.085
4.2 grs sport pistol.

Why not try lapping them together with lapping compound.

I think that's a good idea
