40cal mold suggestion

I just bought a Winchester Badger 40-65 barrel for my Winchester BPCR rifle from a fellow on this site. 

Now I need a recomendation on a good smokeless bullet. Fixed ammo.

There are four 40cal molds for sale in the classifieds. Anyone have and success with either of these...

Saeco double #740 - $90. 
Lyman #410655 400 gr. sharps - $60.
Lyman #410678 395 gr. Taper Mat - $60.
Lyman #410663 400 gr. Snover - $60.

Never had a 40cal. Any other tid-bits of wisdom would be appreciated....

The Saeco 740 works real good in a Browning BPCR 40-65 I once owned. Also the Saeco brand is known for their precision molds, can't go wrong with the 740 and a 1-16 twist.
