Single Pistol powder for mid range loads with cast bullets in 357,41,44, mags & 45 colt?

[DIBBS]

Is there a single powder that will work well for mid range loads and cast bullets in these calibers? I have H110/w296 for full power loads and jacketed bullets.

Looking for good load density so double charges are not an issue. I do have some unique and HS-6, Bullseye as well but that doesn't fill the case. Maybe part of a can of WW231 as well.

TIA

Unique is what I use, about 8 grains for all of em. Not fluffy though for case fill.

Case fill is a big ask across those cartridges. That said, I like 2400 for full house loads. 231 for mid range target loads.

Unique. It's an antique powder and leaves a lot of fouling... but it does what OP wants. I have used it nearly half a century for 9mm, .38/.357, and back in the Clint Eastwood heyday, .44 magnum. Full power gets 296 or 2400.

I use Titegroup as Hodgdon claims it's position insensitive. Works great in 357 and 44 in my experience with hard cast bullets.

Midrange powders I've had good luck with in .44s:

HS-6
AA#7
Longshot
W231/HP-38

I've been playing a lot with 300 gr subs in my rifles lately, AA#7 has been excellent, HS-6 nearly as good, and Longshot also good, all of them have more headroom, but I've been impressed with the accuracy of AA#7 and HS-6 in particular.
