I'm considering a custom mould from Mountain Moulds. A 200gn hollow point (conversion) .401 (10mm) actually. The design program on MM's website gives me control over all kinds of stuff and I'm not sure what would be best. I need some help from you experts if you'll be so kind.

Lube grooves:
1 or 2?
How wide?
Deep?
Angle of lube groove walls?

No need for a crimp groove right? Its not a revolver.

Any particular reason to choose a flat or bevel base over the other?

Thanks!

Oreo, It might give you tons of help if you would take the time to read the book by Glen Fryxell that is posted in the sticky section of this forum. It has all the needed material that will help you decide what is good for you.
