Hi Y'all
I've received a bag of 9mm Luger Winchester (new) brass 100ct and during inspection I put my caliper to them and found sizes from .749 (20) .750 (45) and .751 (35) of each.
Is this normal variations? Also would it be best to trim down the .751's to .750 for a larger store of .750's?
Also I'm going to be using HP-38 powder for my loads good/bad?
any assistance would be dandy.
This will be used in my Pre-88 FIE TZ-75 hope she likes the flavor lol.
Yours in service

New brass is like that. The different manuals list suggested trim lenghts from .751 "Lyman" to .744 "Speer". Trim them to .749 and have at it. The case mouths on those new cases are usualy out of square also, so a trim will put everything to rights. Checking some mixed 9mm cases I find OAL from .741 to .753. I also have an early TZ 75, more than 30,000 rounds through it and never any trouble. You gotta love those all steel guns. Good luck. Zane

Great info Zane
Dandy deal, I'm new to the reloading gig. You would'nt happen to have the Owners Manual from your TZ would you?

Hello---I still have the oiginal box with all the paperwork; but mine is a series 88. I shoot competition with mine and realy like being able to carry it cocked and locked. It also is factory ported. Good luck on your handloading. I am partial to the 147 gr. for knocking down steel targets.---Zane
