From OP’s original post and just a bit further down the first page:
To summarize:
- NOT a hot loaded 9x19 or 9mm Major
- NOT 357 Sig
- Something the same overall length as 9x19 (meaning no 38 Super, no 9x21, etc) to fit into an unmodified G17 sized frame
- OP specifically stated he will be handloading in his first postThe reading comprehension/conversational relevance on this site is utterly infuriating sometimes

From OP’s original post and just a bit further down the first page:
Quoted:
I’d be handloading from the start so factory ammo availability and cost are irrelevant, but new or once fired brass being unobtainable would make it a nonstarter. I’d also like to stay with the 9mm sized case head for compatibility with my Dillon 650 reloading bits.
Quoted:
Looks like some clarification is in order. Not looking for a hot 9x19 factory ammo or projectile recommendations for self defense, but for advice on an entirely different, bigger/faster, cartridge which still uses .355-.356” projectiles.
I’d like it to use the same 9mm case head, so I can just swap in a barrel and maybe recoil spring on a 9mm 1911 or G17, or at least be able to use the 9mm 1911 or G17 frame with a couple lug and play slide/barrel/recoil spring combo.
To summarize:
- NOT a hot loaded 9x19 or 9mm Major
- NOT 357 Sig
- Something the same overall length as 9x19 (meaning no 38 Super, no 9x21, etc) to fit into an unmodified G17 sized frame

Re-read what you quoted there...I'll wait.
Re-read it again, just so you can be sure of what you quoted, and then what you said.
Now that you've re-read it:
...so., 38 Super, Super Comp, 9x23, etc. I don't see OAL of 9mm in a single thing you quoted. Case head size, 38 Super's rim is a little wider but on most 9mm breechfaces, it won't matter.
You do know what a case head is....right?
