Help with Lee loader

[sklfco]

First time shooter, long time handloader.
I only have case gauges for rimfire rounds I reload.
This is my first 9mm and I just used the barrel out of my smith 29 but it doesn’t plunk?
Is it safe to fire? Thoughts? Bullseye 231 powder if that matters with cci 209 primer.
It is the only one, collectors value perhaps?

I am astounded you reload rimfire and have case gauges for them.
I am doubly astounded you have a 9mm round that won't plunk into a 44 magnum.

the 209 shotgun primer is the problem

HUH????

 

[rickm]

I was thinking the Bullseye231 powder
And how do you only reload but dont shot why reload to begin with
And ask for help with a Lee loader and shows a dillon press

Me thinks a funny is happening. Now if you can get a 44 to plunk in a 9, THEN you have really accomplished something!

Lee loaders are POS. I will give you $50 for yours for parts.

Totally normal.

I am leaning towards something other than biden bucks at this time.
I had considered more of these 209 primers, however someone above mentioned they could possibly be an issue so that’s first thing I am scrapping due to how much work those are to get in that little hole!
