Hi,

'The Dutch Luger' has some drawings (with sizes) of both early DWM 9mm cartridges and the 1940 Winchester 9mm drawing.

Hope this helps,

I'm still interested in some comparative measurements of 'fresh' Winchester 9mm, to see if they fit the SAAMI max or that they are more in line with DWM specs.

One trick I learned quite quicly is to let the bullets 'ride' the magazine a few times after loading by pulling up and down on the follower knob. Of course this works good with a max of 5 cartrigdes. When filled to the max it's not very easy to do.
