Hi,
I would do the following:
1. Create a new part file
2. Insert a part copy that is linked to your original part
3. In the part copy parameters you can apply a shrink factor
This method is very robust and your shrinked part with update automatically when changes are made to your original part.

It's a pleasure. To take it one step further. Create a new part file which will be your mould. Create a protrusion which represents the block of steel for your mould. Insert a part copy of the original part, but as a construction body. Use the Boolean command to subtract the construction body from the block of steel to create the necessary cavity.
