Haha. Rude.
I’m sorry that you came asking for feedback and didn’t like the feedback you got. ;)
As a newb reloader that loads only 15k a year of 9mm… please accept my sincerest apologies… but there ain’t die out there that goes all the way to the bottom. I know exactly what the end result is...
I wouldn’t call that “processed”… but it’s value in that condition is 3.5-4.0¢ per..
Processed typically indicates resized and roll sized brass. Returned to full SAAMI spec. Not just resized “nearly” to the base with your decap die.

JClarkShooting will get ya 5% off… 9.9cpr and free shipping (and generally next day shipping) on the full cases.
I don’t believe this at all. Recycled info from last year has come back to life…
Primers have been dropping DAILY for about the last 8-9 days online. I’ve grabbed 10k myself.
Prices have been high, but extremely stable at $85-90/1000.
The variable is how many you can get. Some retailers limit...
I load in the garage, but only store bullets and brass out there. Powder and primers for immediate consumption (month tops) stay out there… everything else in climate control.
Load with 147 data and see where it lands ya. I would get too far into the weeds until you’ve got range feedback from the various guns you’re trying to shoot it in.
Good luck!
At least as a baseline that’s solid advice. The added weight and velocity loss usually offset for “power factor” with bullets that close in weight.
Adam.. also bear in mind that load data is based on a barrel that’s “x” inches in length and is unlikely to exactly match your particular...
Cool. If you’re going for a “minor” load for competitive shooting, 3.5-3.6 grains would probably be pretty close.
I don’t disagree with what you’re saying… but TG is probably one of the most used powders in competitive shooting… and most are usually shooting coated bullets. It works fine… but...
I run the 115RN in my PCCs and the 127 conical in my handguns.
I won’t speak poorly of any other company, but some of the lead times today are just crazy.
And yes… most importantly… they look COOL.
