I cast my own 124 gr truncated cone bullets and Dillon has a NICE approach seating them. (I seat mine to 1.060")

Dillons seater die has an insert with a round nose seater and -flip it around-and a flat none seater at the other end. And by golly, you can switch from round nose to flat none without making any changes iun die position, and it works REAL well.

I wouldnt use anything past 6 grains of power pistol in my 9mm 124 gr CB loads--it just makes more fIRE at the muzzle and produces leading. 6 gr. yields all 10 rounds within a 3' bull at 50' and NO leading at all. Exceeding 6 grains of Power Pistol just makes more fire at the muzzle (kinda fun) and the recoil more enervating, and since I like to shoot a couple hundred rounds a session, I go for the more modest loads since that paper is killed just as good with 6gr as with 6.7

You'll like the truncated cone bullet...it cuts nice neat wadcutter style holes. Knocks pins down quite well!
