Barnabus,
I'd suggest, rather then an RCBS mold, buying a minimum of a 4 cavity aluminum mold from Tom of Accurate Molds.
He makes a quality product.
I have RCBS molds, along with Lyman, and the RCBS are much better quality of the two.
But, I also have a number of Tom's molds, 4 an 5 cavity. One of which is a mold for .40S&W/10mm. They cast great!!!!!!!!!!!.
If you already have an RCBS mold and handles, your half way there. I buy and use RCBS handles on my Accurate Molds.

I'm shooting an RCBS 40-180-CM in my 40 S&W Highpoint carbine. Only bullet I've tried so far. Feeds well and groups pretty good.

Accurate 40-165 works in all my 40sw. If I were younger I'd get the steel but don't think I'll wear out the Al one.

barnabus, No sign of leading when cleaning after 150 rounds.

Barnabus,
I was digging through the toy box today and found the Lyman HP 401638.
I'm gonna sell it as the project is cancelled. :?
Shoot me a message if you want.
