Unique is just very hard to beat in mild to mid range loads in 44 Mag, especially with lead bullets. Some gripe about it not being very clean burning, but it "all comes out in the wash", so to speak. It's always easy on a hot summer day at the range to know what a fellow shooter is burning in his guns by looking at his arms. Those that have been there will know what I'm talking about. There are so many good reduced loads in a variety of loading manuals using Unique. You're bound to find one that you like. After all, it ain't named Unique for nothing.
