abb1 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) Speaking of pressures with 9mm major, I have never had any signs of pressures with my 9mm major loads using CFE Pistol. I have also seen no pressure signs with shooters using HS6 and silhouette shooting major. Now loading 9mm minor with tite group, I found signs of pressures in that the primers are flattened and that is within loading specs. As mentioned, it is also impossible to double charge a 9mm major round, so that fear is gone. Edited November 30, 2016 by abb1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a lot cheaper to load, and it is specific to your gun. I would not trust 9mm major that I did not load myself, not just for the safety aspect, but for reliability as well. I guess that maybe does earn a 'DUH', but common sense must be factored in, and it obviously isn't as people actually seem to buy it, lol. The reason I have to buy is the world is f'n stupid I live in the Caribbean and because of some apparently fairly recent change in Hazmat classification I cannot find any shipping company willing to ship primers. They will ship full ammo, containers full of fireworks, and even explosives and blasting caps for quarries here. But apparently there is something about shipping primers by themselves where the Hazmat classification means the shippers insurance won't cover it. No primers means reloading is pretty much screwed. Pre-primed brass would work (again that is allowed for some stupid reason), but paying for pre-primed brass wipes out basically all the cost savings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
