Search "9mm Bullet Lengths" by 1 SOW.  A few flat nose Bullets are listed.

I'd want to know how long I could load them in my gun.  Perform a push test with that bullet in your gun to find the max oal then subtract 15 thousandths for extra clearance/unknown component or process variability.

Cheers,
Toby
