Does anyone have any reloading info for the 40 S&W using 155 gr jhp and Unique? I have 3000 Montana Gold 155 gr jhp's sitting at the post office to pick up tomorrow and my Dillon 650xl caliber conversion and tool head with powed measure will arive tomorrow. I have older Hornandy and Sierra data but it does not list Unique (1994 and 1995). The reason I will be using Unique is my freind has 16 lbs left from his 2000 world ending stash and would give me a great deal on 4 - 8 lbs.

I presume you've already checked Alliant's loading data page (http://www.alliantpowder.com/default.aspx) and noticed the recall warning (http://www.alliantpowder.com/products/recall.htm) for Unique in 8lb containers of specific lot no?
