[QUOTE="rocketman, post: 3914768, member: 24956"] My 2 cents, having loaded Largo for a couple years: The 9x23 brass is thicker at the neck and the extractor groove is shallower. Make a dummy round and make sure it doesn't jam in the chamber, and make sure the extractor works like it should. I've made dummy rounds out of 9x23 win for my Star Modelo super and they cycle fine manually but I haven't made live rounds out of them. You can use 9mm Luger dies if the extra 4mm length doesn't jam them in the die. Dillon and Lee dies work I believe. You can full length size the Largo or 9x23win case like you would a 9mm Luger or back it off a few mm as needed. Back the flaring and seating die off 4mm to start and adjust as needed. I simply put a 4mm stroke limiting block in the tool holder of my 650 to convert from Luger to Largo. Although this would not fully resize the case base since the sizing die also gets set back 4mm, It still works for me as my loads aren't that hot enough to deform the case bases. [/QUOTE]
