I used 7.3 grains of HS-6 for the 155. I was using berry's plated bullets, and that is the starting load for the 155 grain bullets. They shot fine. I was using the cci small pistol primer, set to 1.130.

I'm using 5.0 W231 for 155 LSWC. Very accurate!

Blue Dot is a great powder for flash at an Indoor Range (gets attention), not so good if you plan on using to protect home at night . Unique works well for target loads. Speer 165gr for home protection.
9.5gr-10.5gr of Blue Dot was great in my USP w/ 155gr HP. YMMV

Thanks for the info. I'll be using them in a G-22 and XDM-40, mostly for targets. I scored 4 lbs. of Unique. I thought i'd start with 7.3grns topped with a 155 JHP. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
