CANIK FANATIK FORUM

9mm jacketed bullets are .355 https://www.speer-ammo.com/products/bullets/handgun-bullets/tmj-handgun-bullet/3995 https://www.sierrabullets.com/product/9-mm-355-115-gr-jhp/ and so on. You're right Texas. That's what I reload jacketed with. I claim senior moment. Ha. But we do have options. Armscor ...

.356 cast won't work in most 9s. .356 is what jacketed bullets are sized to. I cast and size to .357 for my Canik. I cast some to.358 I want to try when I get time.

Great! I'll be keeping an eye on my email for a notice.

Getting parts may be an issue. Firing pins been on backorder for a while.

I'm wondering. I requested the lighter RSA assembly 3 wks ago and haven't heard a thing.

I cast my lead bullets and buy my jacketed ones. I have noticed that Rotometals has raised their lead prices, (I was buying foundry lead and mixing it with soft lead to make Lyman #2), and not as many good hard lead deals on ebay. Clip on wheel weights are about a thing of the past now. Get em while...

Yep. I'm reloading 358-125-RF bullets. I tried them 358 and 357. Squeezed 357 with 3gr 700x or 5 grains of Longshot, oal 1.017. 45-45-10 lube. Longshot has the edge on the 700x but they both shoot great. Longshot having the softer recoil. I tried CFE with 4.8gr being the best for a group but not tha...

Smith & Wesson 59. It had a culvert for a barrel.

I didn't hear they might close, but I did hear they finally started catching crap for dropping Black Rifles.

Great shooting! Handloads? Neat target. Where can I find some?

I have a Rock Chucker I got over 30 yrs ago To load 308 and 357. You can't break it. It was slow but relaxing for me. Then I picked up a coupla semi auto pistols. So much for relaxation. Then the Piggyback came out. I kept my eye on it for some time thinking I should get it for the Rock Chucker. The...

Thanks runeight!

Speaking of wheel guns, it jogged my memory. I do have a 50th anniversary 357 Ruger Blackhawk from CDNN. It's still in its red plastic case. I never did shoot it. Prolly never will be worth much.

Lead accuracy is it's own beast.

You got that right!!

Thanks NWcg2. I'm a CB member, but never found that post. I pour and load for some of my military rifles and thought I would find an accurate cast load for my new Canik. I sold my SW 59 to pay for the Canik. That old 59 was a sprayer. I decided to go with .358 with the TPSF. I did run some sized .35...

How do I measure a slug with 5 lands? Sounds like a dumb question, but....

I couldn't find any info on CanikTP's actual bore size. Is there a standard size?

Hey all! I bought the Canik TP9SF recently and am duly impressed!
I reload and am interested in what other Canik owners found what it takes for an accurate load. So I will be a frequent visitor on this site.
