I'll know soon. My 9mm cast bullets I size to .356"

and the jacketed are indeed .355". I have some old Colt .38 Auto that I mic'd the 130 gr. FMJ at 0.357"! Go figure.

0.001" is not much, until it's that much, too much! lol I have shot some 158 gr. .358" bullets straight out of my European 9mm guns with no ills. Being soft alloy they are somewhat forgiving. Ditto .410" bullets from my 0.406" bore .401 WSL. I could not seat the 158 gr. all the way in 9mm as the case gets thick fast. I think that is why lots of 147 gr. 9mm bullets have a bevel on the bottom.

I don't think the kids these days know how to have fun. In all the late magazine articles they are sort of dead pan, and speak little of past history and knowledge much farther a decade or so.
