.44 Special manual reading

[EmmaGoldman]

Hi all,
I just moved and my manuals are still packed in storage. I'm looking for a few more sources on a load. I'd be indebted if folks here wouldn't mind telling me what a few of your manuals say.

I'm loading 240 grain lead bullets in .44 Special with Unique.

I know the old Skeeter/Keith loads, but I've never trusted them for volume shooting in light guns.

Alliant lists max load as 6.3 grains at 820fps.

What do you see in which manual?

Thanks in advance!

Lyman book says 5.8 start 6.5 max and no listing for unique in my Lee book.

Ok. In my Speer #13 Manual and for the Unique powder and bullet you say your using. 5.7 min of for 749 fps and 6.3 max for 820fps. In my Hornady 7th edition manual it says 4.9 min for 650fps and 6.5 max for 800fps......
