I bought the Redding 9mm competition die based on all the talk and articles I read stating this die is the most accurate for seating bullets. Let me say I am not seeing this come to fruition. I have set the die up and I am getting huge differences in OAL from bullet to bullet. I thought this die would maybe have a difference of .01 or so but I am getting differences greater than that and in some cases a OAL difference of .10. What gives? I am shooting USPSA Limited Minor and these differences can cause issues when going to chrono. Any help in setting this up to not have a huge OAL difference would be greatly appreciated.

I have used Xtreme bullets for all my reloading. I have had no issues. I currently am using 147gn for USPSA competition in my STI.

Any way you can help out a fellow reloaded with some primers if you can get them?

I only have 1K of primers left so I am at the scared point now.

Is Lyman still at work? Went to their website and it has a COVID notice about shipping. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Xtreme bullets are all I use and so if it is the bullet give not seating well that sux. I love Xtreme bullets. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Yes mine are greater than 5 thousandths. I want a redding competition micrometer seating die. Though everyone is out of 9mm. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Wanted to ask the group if the load and OAL provided by DD78 on the first page would change if I went from playyed 147gn bullet to 147gn FMJ from RMR? I want the same PF. Thanks again for all the information.

Would like to run a 147gn Xtreme plate bullet in my STI DVC-L. Would be curious if I could run 3dflyer's load in it.

Muncie I would be shooting an Xtreme plated round nose bullet.

Appreciate the answer AZ. I am running an STI DVC-L.

Does anyone have good load data for 9mm 147gn that is soft shooting that will make minor PF using Shooters World powder? Thanks.

So that would be 3.5gn of sport pistol correct 12glocks? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

DD78 I was just wondering. I like the xtreme bullets but saw a place selling 1000 147gn FMJ for approximately $100 shipped. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

12glocks you plan on keeping everything the same but just change powder? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Butterpuc and DD78 would going form the Xtreme copper plated bullets to FMJ make a difference in the amount of powder or COL needed to make a nice low recoil round that makes Minor PF?

DD78 I am getting really squirrely accuracy with the load you provided me. Not sure what the problem is. How is your accuracy out of your gun?

I appreciate everyone's response. Think I am going to try N320 as suggested earlier. I have never used it so why not try it. Great to know this forum has a wealth of knowledge for us sophomore reloaders.

Appreciate the response DD78. VV powder is freaking expensive though I have never tried it.

I am open to any powder.

Just got me a STI DVC Limited and am looking for load data for a 147gn Extreme RN obviously making minor PF. I am new to this forum so if there is already load information please point me in the right direction. Thanks.
