Are you using the 125 grain or 124 grain bullets? I was thinking Berry’s lists 124 grain for 9mm, but they have 125 grain bullets for 357. Are your bullets for 9mm?

I recently was working up loads for 9mm Berry’s 124 grain HBFP, but I suspect the bullet profile differs from the 124 grain FP. I was testing Unique and Power Pistol at an OAL of 1.120 and got some good groups of 4 of 5 in a 1.5” circle at 50 feet using a rest and Springfield XDm pistol.
