Bullets for 9mm vs 38super

[mahamoti]

Since 9mm 135gr Bayous have been hard to come by, I've been looking for a similar alternative. It seems that every other manufacturer, like Berry's, for instance, only has a 135gr bullet in 38super. Both bullets are .356 diameter, so is there something like bullet profile that makes one .356 135gr bullet for 38super, and another for 9mm? Or would it be OK to load 38super bullets for 9mm?

Did you contact Donnie directly? He brought some to CAS for me last month when I was out. Don't know the answer to your question though.

I emailed him a few weeks ago; his said there was about an 8 week delay at the time.

I had bought some Zero brand bullets from Roze Dist that were 121 grain JHP's @ 0.356" designed for the 38Super, for a project with 357Sig and 9x25Dillon and they were great, however while trying to obtain more they have been out for quite some time now. I continue to check for them with no luck! I have a feeling the price of copper has been too eratic for these companies to purchase their supplies.

The reason I had like them was that they were priced well, true jacketed bullets and the bullet's length & olgive allowed for positive seating and no movement or bullet set back.

Best regards!
