I have accidentally come into ownership of 500 9mm 124 Grain Round Nose Bevel Base Cast Lead bullets from Dardas Cast Bullets.
They seem pretty small.
When I put them in the case and seat them (OAL 1.1), the entire blue circle thing I think it is lubricant) is buried in the case. Is this OK? Is that where it is supposed to be?
The length of the bullet is .570". By comparison, the Dardas 147gr is .669" and the Hornady HP/XTP 147gr is .659" I realize that the heavier bullets will be longer...so my question is: What should the OAL of the finished round be? Is it OK to bury the lubricant? Or is that
supposed to be exposed?
