Looking to expand casting experience

My boolit casting has been limited and am expanding. I have not cast boolits for 9 mm and 40. To start I'm using WW and LBT lube. Or should I mix it with something else. With WW, air cooled is this going to be too hard for the lower FPS? The molds I'm looking at are Accurate 40-180D, 35-125C and or 35-125R. Has anyone used these and have feeding issues?
Next step, I'm looking for a hollow point mold for the 40. I looked at Mp-molds and looks like they do not have any in stock. Plus the web sight has not been updates sense 2011. Are they still around? Or is there another mold maker out there that I can look at as well.

Mp is still in business he is just too busy to do anything but make and ship molds.
ww alloy will be fine.
can't help with the molds never used any of the ones you list.

it's all an educated guess,,,, till the trigger is pulled.

the more i find out about shootin boolits, the more it contradicts everything i ever learned about shooting jaxketed.

MP (Miha) does not keep molds in stock, he builds molds via group buys. The molds he lists as having on hand are over runs from a group buy.

Try Accurate Molds, he is a custom maker that can make the molds you want.

Air cooled clip-on WW should be a great alloy for most things. I add 2% Sn to all of my WW and for the 9mm it may, might, could be better to water quench as you cast.

Can't help with the feeding question, I have never used those boolits either.

NOE as a HP for the .40 cal and 9mm. I wanted there large cavity .45 acp but its not on the site anymore. Any body know if they still have it?

WW's are fine like Rick says.
Remember that most light loads use a fast powder that peaks fast with instant pressure. Harder can do better.
