A pound of an alternate powder, even at today's prices would be cheaper than the grief of hurting yourself or ruining a good gun, so I'd recommend following the manufacturers advice under all circumstances.

I couldn't agree more. And I am a person that has used a lot of BD in 357 Mag 125 gr. and lots of 41 Mag loads. I loaded and shot these many years ago. I still had quite a bit loaded and shot them up recently. But I just didn't feel as comfortable shooting them as I used to.
To me BD must be loaded near max to perform well. If you do that, then I don't understand the flaming dirt comments. If you don't, then I totally understand.
Handguns are really expensive. Bullets are expensive. Powder for handguns is relatively cheap. Make the right decision.
