Are you looking for squib loads or something with some speed?

QuickLoad is not into cast boolits nearly as much as jacketed, so there's little bullet selection to work with. I don't do cast boolits so I'm not sure if case fill is as important as jacketed bullets using slower powders. At 13gr, the predicted velocity is around 1367fps out of a 16 inch barrel.

Does it give any loads for the 405 and up? Like to use the 405 gr Lee as well.

No, cast boolits are not its forte.
