9mm factory pistol with large freebore

[Jamescg]

Looking to load my 9mm ammo longer. All my 9mm pistols that I own have a short free bore. What pistols have y’all seen that you’re able to load long oal.

What’s the advantage to reloading them longer?

 

[Jamescg]

I can’t get some bullets to work at the load data oal spec. I would like a little safety zone with 9mm pressures

You can have the chambers reamed out
Shorten your OAL (My CZs and some others needed 1.10")
Pick a different projectile. Some have a more forgiving O give.

I have to load to 1.060 to plunk and spin in my chamber. the Everglades 124 grain hollow points I have to load at 1.050. The 124 grain Boudreau's Bullets lead flat point still stick in rifling at that length.
