More expensive molds
A little harder to cast.
Need to do a decent amount of testing to get the alloy content correct to allow expansion at the velocity you run the bullet at while not leading your barrel

If you want to mimic your defensive ammo pick a mold that drops a similar weight then work up a load that matches the POI (same velocity)
