Series 80 into ball gun part 2

[bentrod]

Thanks for all the replies, I learned quite a bit. I ordered a gun, it should be at my dealer tomorrow. It was a huge change from where I first started out. It is a Beretta 92 custom from Mountain Competition Pistol. I went with 9mm because of my wrists. I noticed when shooting a HB gun for just 30 rounds I could feel it in my wrist. 2-300 rounds through my wad gun are no problem, but HB is another story. I am 71 and have lived a very physical life and its telling. I heard that AMU is going with the 9mm HB gun for the same reason as mine, and those guys are much younger.

Now developing accurate 9mm loads for 25 and 50 yds will be a challenge. I have a Dillon SDB and an RCBS rockchucker. I think I will start out with single stage until I get a few loads going. Any information would very helpful, because I have heard that 9mm Luger can be problematic.

I will keep you all posted as I search for the perfect 9mm load :-)

Thanks,

Jim
