I have used AA#5 in replica Speer +P loads but usually use W31 for standard pressure .38's. If you're looking for something slower than W231 i see no reason why AA#5 won't do a good job for you.
I use mostly Hodgdon/Winchester/IMR powders because that's what is available where I live. To tell the truth I would gladly use AA handgun powders if they were available in my area.
