[QUOTE="clintbailey, post: 2274682, member: 8544"] If you haven't bought your dies yet, try to buy the Lee 4 die set that comes with the Lee Factory Crimp Die. It sure seems to help with feed issues; I just started loading pistol rounds earlier this year, and I had to crimp pretty good to get them to feed good in my 1911. I have also shot the cast bullets from J&K and had no problems with them, although I have since switched to plated bullets (which they sell as well now). As far as powder, I've shot Universal Clays, Unique, and right now on Power Pistol since its kinda been buy what's available market lately. And you may already know this, but you will go from what's usually a two step process in reloading rifle shells to a four step process with pistol shells, if you use the factory crimp die. Good luck, its good fun and get to shoot more and cheaper! [/QUOTE]
