tools needed for 9mm cases?

It wouldn't hurt to have a bullet puller if you were trying to obtain the correct OAL.

there is a small zone on all cases that do not get touched with the resizing die

if your gun causes a bulge in that area it will not be corrected

ive not run into that situation but its just something of which to be aware

That's why Lee makes the "U" die. That's why some brands of brass are larger in diameter at the base. So the bulge is sized away. A "U" die coupled with a shaved shell holder will return any 9mm case to bulgeless status.

I think I will do that to my shellolder...

Ahso.

Thanks.

I was just wondering if I don't start with a known length (of brass) wouldnt different lengths end up with different bullet seat depths and therefor different pressures? or is that fact to insignificant to worry about?

The bullet seating depth would still be the same since the seating die is set a given adjustment but when it comes to crimping you would have variations depending on the varying lenght of the brass.
