I actually found a used set on Evil Bay at a decent price, but was out bid on a set on Gun Broker near about the same time, so continue to look. The Dillon Dies are a Sizer & Seater in the set, they rely on other dies for expander and powder thru.

The 9X25 is not an easy round to load for, head spacing is critical to performance and function. I am still working with various settings and loads to achieve what I am looking for with my S&W 1006 using a Bar-Sto Match Grade Barrel and also will be working with some loads for the Glock 29 as I just purchased a stock length LWD barrel for it.

I had to utilize my 9mm RCBS expander die to work with various bullets including cast bullets. This allowed staighter and more uniform seating.

Good luck getting the dies.

If you're careful, it's possible to load the 9x25 Dillon using a combination of .40/10mm dies and 357 Sig dies. You use the .40/10mm sizing die first, and then use the 357 Sig sizing die to form the neck and shoulder. It takes some trial and error, but can be done.

Hope this helps.

Fred
