WESHOOT2 and saands,

Thanks for the input. I've got plenty of 9x19 brass I just need to get my dies, bullets etc...

I started loading .45ACP about 9 months ago...loads of fun! Ha Ha! I use Universal Clays and it seems to burn real clean and consistent. I'm using a Lee Anniversary Press kit.

I wonder why ammo manufacturers don't load 147 +P loads for the 9mm? For .45ACP they load 230gr JHP to +P and I've never had a problem with those in my pistols. Oh well, just wondering.
