38 auto .356 diameter 130

[realmswalker]

I have some bullets that i picked up. they say 38 auto. they measure .356 diameter. they are 130 grains jacketed. Can I use these for 9mm loadings?

Those are intended for .38 Super, but will work in 9x19 loadings. I've used them myself, but really prefer to load them in my .38 Super.

Hope this helps.

I have used some 121 grain .356 diameter with no ill effects in my Ruger. I didn't load them to max pressures though. Yeah, I found out later they were for .38 Super and I should have saved them for later use.

I have shot some Zero .356 bullets in 9MM and they shot just fine.
