[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 1939178, member: 807"] I've been reloading the 357 sig for quite some time. The short neck makes it critical that you find a bullet that the ogive hasn't started in the neck area. Lots of 9mm bullets have too much curve to allow then to be seated to the correct overall length and still grip the bullet. Several years ago I started using 125 grain JHP and JSP bullets made for the 357 mag. They have a straight wall section where I need it in the neck area to allow the case to grip the bullet and they work well for me. I haven't seen any big jumps in velocity between them and the 356 diameter bullets and no visible pressure signs as well. I've been shooting them in a Sig P226 and a Sig P229, as well as a Sig P239. They work great in those. I have loaded lots of the AA7 and AA9 powders in the 357 sig and they work well unless you have a very short barrel. Lots of flash at night though. Good luck with the loading for the Glock, I would suggest an after market barrel for shooting reloads. Blitzfike [/QUOTE]
