There are and were many companies that carried or could make custom molds for people. My favor is Ranch Dog Outdoors, who just shut down because of the long lead time for molds from Lee Precision.
I have ordered a couple of custom molds for my 357 MAX Contender, it has a GC'd, 250 grain SWC bullet with wide lube grooves. The other was a 190 gain Silhouette GC'd bullet with a specifically heavy crimp groove and a wide lube groove.
Both of these molds work well, but have limited, if any, uses out side the Contender world.
If you want a hollow point bullet, try this guy, he is really good. He did a mold that I have. http://www.hollowpointmold.com/
Other than some really special needs, most reasons to get custom molds maybe just the bragging rights. Many of the manufactures generally have something that will fill your needs.
Plus custom molds are expensive and there maybe a long wait until you get your mold, like many months or a year.
