I know this is an old thread, but I just found it. Of all the wildcat bottleneck pistol cartridges, this one interests me the most. The weak link in my two favorite bottlenecks, the 357 SIG and the 400 CorBon, is the short necks. Also had a 9X25 Dillon barrel and Dillon dies several years ago. Sold my barrel to McNett, and the dies to a Glock Talk forum member. It was fun to play with, but had limited practicality. As a lover of cast bullets, this long neck cartridge fascinates me and I wonder if the OP has done any more load development with it.

I haven't had the time. I wish I did. When I do more testing I will post the results.

I just realized I hadn't shot this round since 2017 (3 years).

Is it like the 9x25 Dillion? Although I don't know if the 9x25 can use a 158 grain bullet. Just wondering.

I use 158 JHP's re-sized to .356 in my .357 Sig using .40 formed brass. I haven't chronographed them but they are fun to shoot.
