380acp loads in Ruger 9mm speed 6?

Trying again! Since I don't have to keep pressure up to cycle a slide, would it be relatively safe to load 380acp data in 9mm cases for revolver use?

 A 9mm start load is pretty well gonna be the same thing?

I load 45ACP loads in 45 WinMag cases for plinking with my contender. They work fine, but will not hit the same point of aim as the full bore loads. Just adjust your aim to compensate.
