shooting cast bullets in the Luger

D:
The 125 gr. bullets that I struggled with were a round nose design, probably also from Mo. Bullet Co.
I suspect that a truncated cone design may be more authentic, but some of the more experienced collectors should weigh in on this issue.
And I should add that one reason for pursuing this issue was the lack of available bulk jacketed 9mm bullets. There was a delay on the cast bullets but not too bad.
As far as I know that reasonable priced jacketed bullets for reloading are still unobtainium. And when they were they were bloody expensive.
