Thread: Reloading for 9mm pistol

Buy bulk components for pistol. You might not think you shoot much when you start but your component stocks will go down faster than a fat kid on a seesaw.
Use small rifle primers as it saves on buying separate lots if ya shoot an AR or the like.

I have few of small rifle primers I just don't have experience in "Pisto" reloading, saying so I must take it easy(I prefer). I will make more enquires about that.
Thank you a lot for the heads up...

Cheers

Winchester pistol primers and buy them by the 5000 or 10 000, do a search and talk to your local club members on what deals they get. If its a small club look to meet people from a larger club to do bulk buys for all your reloading components be it primers brass projo's or powder.

Winchester 231 was always good to me, I think it was about 3.5 grains to hit minor pf with a 50 fps buffer running 124's I did run major for a bit but thats another story and a whole different powder / bullet combo

Feds tend to be a bit thin but good for revolver's if you run a light trigger.
My info is probably out of date by 20 years so take it for what its worth.

Small rifle primers may be too hard for your particular pistol but be willing to experiment, they differentiate between pistol and rifle for several reasons.... otherwise they would just be called primers
