[QUOTE="acp, post: 1999504, member: 8991"] J&K bullets are great! Nope, you won't save a dime, but you will shoot a lot more. I shoot the hell out of their 125gr cast RN 9mm. I have used Pistol power and I will have to see if I can find my notes on it. I tried it once, to be honest I went back to Winchester 231. Pistol power is a pretty "flammy" powder in my experience. I find 231 to make better loads. I shoot them in a Smith and Wesson 3913. I also shoot J&K cast .45 RN in my 1911. It is a ww2 Remington Rand and the barrel does have some roughness in the middle of the barrel and I do get some lead fouling there. I would say it is the barrels fault though. My Smith I never have any problems with leading. The only other thing you asked is about using them in Glocks. I believe Glock says not to use cast bullets in their pistols, they use polygonal rifling and I guess it fouls more or something. On the other hand plenty of people shoot cast through their Glocks, I suppose that is something you will have to sort out for yourself. As soon as I can find my PP loads for 9mm I will post them up.
