Trail Boss works for me in my J frame snub nose for light target loads for the girls.
125gr Lfn or RN Cowboy type at 580-600fps for a Recoil of only 1.90.
A 158 LRN at only 570fps that hits POA and only has a Recoil of 2.58ft/lbs.
A FBI 158gr LHP at 861fps has a Recoil of 5.92 ft/lbs.

As for a rifle bottle neck, yes.........
I loaded the Speer and Hornady 110 gr Plinkers with Trail Boss, SR4759 and Unique powders.
All three worked in the 1600fps zone for 50 yard work but may go to 100yards
if your rifle barrel etc. are in good shape.
