The thing you run into with preferred powders is.
We all say what works best for us. This doesn't mean others aren't good.
 
What you need to do is find out what the rate of twist of your rifle is and use 140,000rpm's as the max velocity when looking for starting loads.

1 in 10 twist ='s 1950fps
1 in 12 twist ='s 2325fps
1 in 14 twist ='s 2725fps

Where did you come by, or how did you derive those numbers? I'd like to apply that to my 44 mag for minimum velocities. (I've got another thread o that project lol.)
 
RPM = (V x 720) / the rate of twist

1950fps x 720 ='s 1,404,000
1,404,000 / 10 (1 in 10 twist) ='s 140,400rpm
