    Hey guys, quick question. I know some dies can be used for more than one caliber of the same diameter. I know a guy who loads 10mm with his 40 S and W dies on a Dillon 650. My question is, can you do the same thing with 9mm Luger and use the dies to load 9mm Largo?

    I would certainly try it before I bought largo dies. The worst I would guess is you will not be able to resize the entire case with 9 X 19 sizer die.
    If not I would order a 9 X 23 sizer die. And use the seater and Crimp die from
    9 X 19

    Thats what I was thinking but I wanted to see if anyone had done it with a Dillon and if the sizing die would fit the extra 4mm.

    Never have reloaded the Largo, but have used 38 super cartridges reloaded to 38 ACP pressure in the 9mm Mauser. Works well with 125 grain Lee RNFP.

    The Dillon will not have any problems with it for sure. The worst I see is a different sizing die and a case feeder conversion. You might have to trim down a 9x 25 case conversion..or cut out a 9 X 21 conversion. I would call Dillon, its can't be a huge deal..
