    40 S&W bullet design/mold recommendations

    Can anyone offer their thoughts or recommendations for a 175 to 180gr 40 S&W bullet design for IDPA shooting? I will be shooting both a Sig P229 and a M&P 40.

    The Lee 180gr TC mold looks nice, but the quality of NOE or Accurate may better serve me. Also, I am not married to the idea of a TC design.

    Thanks,

    Bill

    There is a group buy on molds for the 40 S&W right now.
    I think you could still get in,they are from N.O.E.

    Swede, thanks for shamelessly plugging your product. It is the bullet design that I was looking for but was unable to find.

    I just posted an "I want" on the page you linked.

    Bill,
    If this will be your first NOE mold, you will be amazed, especially after you cast with it.
