Start at 4,4 grains of Vihtavuori N340. Then work it up.

but the official data is for only tmj 200gr not lead
thanks
Yes, I know. And that's why I told you to start from 4,4 grains (4,6 in VV data). That should be a safe starting load for pretty much any 200 grain bullet in .40 S&W: TMJ, FMJ, HP, Lead...
If it was me, I would use the 4,6 grains from the start. It is the starting load for a JACKETED bullet so it should be safe with a "softer" lead bullet.
