    Man, loading any type of shot loads in a 9MM must be a real pain.
    You must be very patient.

    Did the rice/COW loads do any better? Of is rice still the beast.

    I think it's smart to pattern them but these did actually hit to POA---with the irons. Keep in mind the laser is 2+" below the bore and at close range that will always hit that amount of distance low.

    I hit one small wasp with one of the 9mm rice/COW loads and it went "poof!" and disappeared. I was playing around with charges though and the one in that load rang my ears. Haven't shot any with the new reduced charge of 0.4gr.

    I also switched to cereal box powder-cover wads for more case volume and like how they seat better than corrugated box.

    Not any more trouble than .38 or .45LC.
