The weight isn't a problem, 147 gr bullets are common in the 9mm. The nose shape may or may not feed, each individual is different. You may actually benefit from a larger diameter bullet. Many 9mms have bores way larger than the nominal diameter, my Browning HP is .3585. This is pretty common and the reason many have such trouble getting 9mms to shoot well with cast with the normal .355-.356 bullets. Best to slug your bore first to see what you are working with. A more rounded design may be more likely to chamber and function well-how about the Lee 125gr RF if you are looking for a dual purpose mold?

Many on the CastBoolit forum seem to like this one. I have not tried it myself so I cannot comment.
