Default 9mm truncated cone bullets

My quest to find original truncated cone 9mm 124 grain ended with not finding any at all. I had some Hornady JHP 124 grain bullets and when seated in the brass the profile was very close to the original parabellum bullet. Now to the range for function, etc.

Default trunc bullet

Hi to all, Fiocchi has a 124 grain, 9MM truncated cone ball offering that seems to work well in the standard Luger? Not so much in the drum, I think too short, but really haven't given them a real chance..... Neat rounds though....til...lat'r....GT

Fiocchi ammo does not want to function in one of my lugers. This Hornady does.
Photo is a little blurry.
