Finally got around to running some batches of 9mm and 44 Mag over the chrono after work today.
Wrote up the next batch I want to try for 44 Mag, as well as 2 more that I want to try for 9mm.
Thinking that 4.2gr recipe might be my go-to for suppressed 9mm loads through my M9A4. I have to see what kind of steam they pick up through my SP5 before I commit to loading a whole batch though.
Next on the press will be a 10mm ladder to run through my Bruin though.

I used my Lee hand press to size/decap, and sort 600 nickel 9mm while watching TV and sipping a glass or two of Four Roses Small Batch Select tonight.
Final count: 400 all WIN, 100 all +P (77 WIN and 23 Hornady), and 108 mixed. I normally wouldn’t sort bulk pistol rounds, but these are earmarked for some pulled 147gr Federal HST bullets that I found on sale a month or so ago. I’ll be loading them to the same 1,000fps that a factory 147gr HST is loaded to. They’ll be used for defensive training and carry rounds.

How do you like the N320? I’ve only the loading for two years and haven’t played with any Vihtavuori powders yet.
I like it alot. It's a stick powder that meters almost perfect from my powder measure. Relatively clean as well.
I apparently hurt people’s feelings and stepped on their sensitive nerves by sipping a bourbon while sizing brass with no live primers, powder, or ammunition in the room.
LOL, the hell with them!!!! That’s why I have case feeders and bullets feeders on my presses. It keeps one hand free just for that reason.
NOT MINE!!! If I can't have a cocktail while doing this monotonous stuff, I'm not going to do it!!!
plenty of primers and powder in my reloading room!!
And I blast music and sometimes watch YouTube videos while running a turret press. It's nobody's business what you do at your house.
