No powder? Problem with your powder dispenser. Hodgdon says 3.8-4.3 for that weight bullet, so the amount should be fine. I would suggest physically inspecting powder levels before seating bullets with any style press. Otherwise, things like this happen.

231 feeds so consistently through my powder dropper I almost never need to make any adjustment once a desired drop is set. I use 4.1 grains in my 9mm loads, and they are plenty hot enough to ensure semiauto function without concern about a squib.
