reloader28,

Do you use gas checks on your 9mm as well? What hardness do you use? I just figured that 14 would be a safe bet, I'm really not sure what kind of hardness I should have. I haven't looked in my areas for WW, but it sounds like it might be a good idea to start. Whats in the WWs that make them more hard? And could i just water cool the boolits to harden them up some more?

GP100man,

Do you use gas checks on your subsonic 9mm? What do you melt down and mix to get your 10-11 BHN lead? Do you ever have a problem with your 9mm cycling when you have a subsonic velocity?
