Don't have the answer to your question, (call Lee) but can tell you that when I was looking for a 9mm mold, I considered the 120 grainer, but I chose the Lee 358-125-RF because it had a wide meplat. Granted this is a bullet designed for cowboy, but found it feeds perfectly in both my SR9c and Glock. The beauty is if you load 38/357 (I do ) it's great, too. I size these at 357 or 358 in my nines. They drop @130 grs. from my 6-banger.

You do have a crimp groove, but that bothers me not. Loads and shoots fine.
