    WTB--:.40 S&W capable lead

    I'm looking for some 40 S&W capable boolits. I bought 1K of the 401043 Lymans off a gentleman and I think that it seems to be a really excellent choice based on initial testing. I'd prefer something available in 4+ cavity molds if possible although I'd do a 2 cavity mold as well. This is for SD40/SW40 pistols so if you have something that shoots well in those all the better. Powder behind them will probably be Power Pistol although I have a few others I can play with. If you not only have a few bullets you could send my way for compensation of your time and energy+any advice loading with Power Pistol or another powder I'd be grateful. I tend to like Alliant overall but will consider others as 2021's market permits. I also powder coat for what it's worth.

    Thanks!

    I shoot the Lee bullet in all of my 40 S&Ws including my Model 411. It shoots well and comes in a 6 cavity mold.

    Second millerwb on the Lee mold. Relatively cheap and works well in my Sig.

    I'm casting up a pot full right now, waiting for it to get back up to temperature after topping the pot off

    I have found that the 401403 feeds great in various 40's. I have it in both 2 cavity and 4 cavity. I believe it was originally made for winchester 38-40
    rifles. So there are quite a few old ones out there.
