Colbyjack,
Check out the molds at www.midwayusa.com, www.grafs.com, and www.midsouthshooterssupply.com to get an idea of what's out there and what the prices are.
There a lot of options!

Lee makes a 6 cavity 200 gr. rnfp that shoots very well for me out of a S&W 625 .45 ACP. I have no doubt it would feed in my auto, but haven't tried them yet. It would be less than 60$ for the mould and handles, and would make you alot of boolits fast.
At teh bottom of this page click on CastPics and go to the data portion. They have a listing of all Lyman mold #'s to look at with pics.This will help on an auction site when you look there. Gianni
