It's been a long time since I reloaded 9mm ammo, and I don't recall if this is right, so tell me, is this right? I'm reloading a 115 Gr. JHP bullet, the powder I've selected is Blue Dot, The Sierra Bullets recipe I've selected calls for 6.0 - 7.4 grains (i'm going with 7.2 grains) when I pour that amount of powder into the case, it fills the case to the rim. I checked the amount of powder on 2 different RCBS beam scales to confirm the amount of powder. I can place a bullet over the powder and press it to it's correct seating depth. I just don't recall there being that much powder in the case. It almost seems like this might be a compressed load, and don't want to risk excessive pressures. Does this all sound normal to you guys?
