I have used CFE Pistol in my 9mm with the 115g Berry's and various loads of it have worked well. an added plus is the almost lack of copper fouling.

Thanks for the advice! I took the die apart and lowered the pin about 1/8 inch and it worked great!

One thing I did a long time ago was put a case w/o primer in it and run it up into the die. Push the decapping stem down until it bottoms out inside the case. Then raise the stem mebbe 1/16", and re-tighten. The pin only needs to go far enough to push out the old primer, any farther and you risk bottoming out on the inside of the case heads which can lead to problems (pushed out stem, bent stem, distorted brass, etc.). Try that. (I now just look at the stem's position and can tell if it's far enough). The stem and collet should be degreased, cleaned with a solvent (I use brake clean) to eliminate slipping.
