gigamortis Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 I noticed when loading 9mm in the past that I could get some setback with FC, Blazer, CCI, *I*, and Speer brass. Win, RP, PMC, and CBC headstamps would all hold pretty well in comparison, though. Of course, this was with my Hornady carbide sizer die. Out of curiosity, I tried a Lee carbide sizer and I noticed that the brass was getting sized a little smaller than the Hornady die did. The Lee die didn't totally eliminate setback tendencies in the looser holding headstamps, but it was definitely a noticeable improvement. When I switched to Bayou Bullets, I did some more setback effort testing on all headstamps listed above. Amazingly, I couldn't get any setback to occur with the Bayous loaded in any headstamp brass. Bayou bullets all the way for me now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
