The_Shadow,
Thank you for the good info.. I've been shooting and reloading the 9X25 for almost two years however I have mainly used XTP bullets.
it was yesterday that I experienced my first bullet setback and a few ftf's due to headspacing.  The setbacks occurred with Zero 115gr fmjs.

Looks like the ogive extends a bit farther than most which is killing my neck tension.

Unfortunately I have several hundred of these loaded up so I hate to pull them.  They are currently seated to 1.259 and I'm going to use my kinetic puller to get them out to 1.262 then try a bit more taper crimp.. I'll do this on a few then shoot them. If setback occurs again I'm pulling the entire lot.

I'm waiting on a knurling tool to arrive and may try that if load these bullets again or just stick with XTP's.

What bullet(s) do you have the best luck with in your Dillon?

Shot my 40 super today along with a 9X25 Dillon and 460 Rowland.. Love them all..
Let a couple buddies shoot them for their first time. One voted for the 40 Super, the other 460 Rowland but my fav is the 9X25..

Guys,
First post so go easy..

I am tired of searching and going to make an assumption the Dillon headspaces off the shoulder and not the case mouth?

Someone set me straight.

thanks
