Hugh,
Yes, I've been through such headaches. If I have to make an expander, I like to have it about .0015" below lead bullet OD; gives me snug seating but doesn't seem to "swage" the bullet during seating.
Since my first go-round for this caliber (new to me) will be with a SIG P-210 not yet in my hands, I'm hoping that the Swiss did not do such a characteristically fanatical job on the chambering that rounds with maximum diameter bullets might be too tight in the neck area. Or maybe I'm worrying too much.
By the way...real long shot here...but might anybody know where I could get a 9mm P-210 barrel and the correct captive spring to go with it? I would like to have dual caliber capability, and know that all 210 barrels were hand fitted to each gun.
I'm headed to the nearby Camp Perry National Matches today, to ask the same question from some of the high end pistol vendors there on commercial row; really great when all these folks can be found in one place, once a year.
