I show two loads for the 44/40 Winchester from the Lyman 45th addition reloading handbook.
The test firearm used was a Colt SAA with a 7.5" barrel.
200gr Jacketed bullet;
starting load, 8gr Unique, 825fps.
Max load 11.1gr of Unique, 1125fps.
Since the 44/40 is a bottlenecked case, you might have problems with setback with higher loads locking up your revolver.
