Also, be careful how far you screw the sizing die in.
Screw it in too far, and have light primer strikes, out too far, and you may have problems with locking up fully.
I tried to use 9x25 dies, they all work great except the sizing die, which I sold off.
(I got a sweet deal on the dies, I got 5 dies, a mix of 9x25 and 357SIG dies, and a lee FC die for $60 used.) Sold the 9x25 sizer for $20 to a friend.
He still bugs be about the rest of the dies.
If you haven't loaded 357SIG before, it may be frustrating at first.
Dillon makes the only carbide dies, and they're over $100, I heard of people using a .40 sizer, then a 357SIG sizer to avoid lubing cases.
Hornady one shot works great, use it sparingly.

I use rainiers because they have a natural resistance to setback.
Jacketed bullets set back easier unless you can find 9mm JHPs with a cannelure...
