Ya gotta love Unique.

For my .380 and 9mm carry loads, I use a top end load of Unique for 90grXTP HP/.380, and 115gr Hornady HAP HP. For .380 practice loads, Green Dot and 95gr/Missouri, for 9mm, Green Dot and 115gr Missouri, both the plated bullets.

.38 Special carry load, Speer 158gr SWC HP, over +P charge of Herco, .38 Practice load, Red Dot and 158gr Speer SWC.

.357 mild load, 158gr Speer LSWC over Red Dot. Medium load 158gr Missouri LSWC over Unique or Herco. Top end load, 158gr Speer jacketed HP over max charge of 2400.

.44M mildest load, Red Dot and 180gr Hornady Cowboy.
Medium Load, 240gr Missouri LSWC over Unique or Herco. Bear medicine, max load of W296 with Hornady 265gr RNFP.

I have multiple .380's, 9mm's, .38 Special's, .357's, and .44M's. The above combinations keep a range of loads to the same poi out to close threat distances, 7-15yds. For longer shots I need to make sight adjustments to maintain credit card size groups at 25yds. Hunting range distances need fine tuning to be effective at 50yds+
