I need some suggestions for a light weight boolit for my 40S&W. I have a Lee 401-175-tc that works flawlessly for me. I am hoping to find a lighter weight boolit that I can use for practice but the ones I have found and tried are semi-wadcutter design and don't feed well in my pistol.
I have tried the 2Alpha 155grain and the Lee 401-145-swc and get at least 1-2 failures to feed during each magazine full. The Lee 145s are quite accurate but I can't stand the feed problems.
I am shooting them in a Taurus 101 with an EFK ported firedragon barrel and a 20lb recoil spring. I still have the original barrel and spring and have tried the light boolits I have in that setup as well and had the same identical problem.
I am looking at the NOE 402-150-hp and the Lyman 401654 150 grain tc.
If anyone has experience with these 2 boolits I would appreciate feedback and opinions.
If you have any other light boolit suggestions I am open to your ideas.
Thanks for your help with this.
