    Speer Lead Bullets 125gr 9mm?

    I found myself buying a box of 500 Speer 125gr 9mm .356 Lead Cast Round Nose Projectiles. I will admit it was an impulsive buy this morning, it was the last of any 9mm projectiles on the local store shelf. I do have a order in with Wes and know he is working hard to get them out.

    My question is can I use load data for a “LCN” to be honest I don’t know what the “LCN” means. I don’t see data for LRN.

    Also these bullets are lubed am I ok to load them as is or better off cleaning them and trying to powdercoat them.

    Sorry if any of these are stupid questions, I have only been reloading for a year now and that has been .223 and .300blk. I also tried to search here but didn’t find my answer.

    I don’t have my Speer manual handy but there are loads for them in there. The Speer lead bullets are soft compared to other companies lead bullets so keep the velocities down on them. The lube that comes on them is adequate for the velocities they were designed for, you could powder coat is you wanted but not necessary.
