Recommendation needed for light boolit in 40S&W

[tazman]

I need some suggestions for a light weight boolit for my 40S&W. I have a Lee 401-175-tc that works flawlessly for me. I am hoping to find a lighter weight boolit that I can use for practice but the ones I have found and tried are semi-wadcutter design and don't feed well in my pistol.
I have tried the 2Alpha 155grain and the Lee 401-145-swc and get at least 1-2 failures to feed during each magazine full. The Lee 145s are quite accurate but I can't stand the feed problems.

I am shooting them in a Taurus 101 with an EFK ported firedragon barrel and a 20lb recoil spring. I still have the original barrel and spring and have tried the light boolits I have in that setup as well and had the same identical problem.

I am looking at the NOE 402-150-hp and the Lyman 401654 150 grain tc.
If anyone has experience with these 2 boolits I would appreciate feedback and opinions.
If you have any other light boolit suggestions I am open to your ideas.
Thanks for your help with this.

The Lyman 401654 (150 gr) is accurate and I don't believe I've ever had an FTF with it in my G22 loaded to a COAL of 1.100. My favorite load for the 401654 is Promo 3.8 @ 980 fps.

The Lyman 401638 is a 175 gr.

I have 3 40's and 1 10 and feed them all SWC bullets. Play with you OAL and try seating the shoulder down to the case mouth if you have a short throated gun. If you do the latter, please start with a less than full house load. The case capacity has been reduced by the seating depth.

tazman try seating those SWC's til there is only about .030 of lead past the end of the case. Also put a snug taper crimp on them. I'll have to look and see what the oal is, I use the 401-145 in my 40.

edit: I use the oal of 1.100 When mine were seated to this all my jams went away.

I'll try that. I am currently running an oal of 1.120. I feel a couple of bumps as the slide closes. Perhaps the reduced length will help with that.
