Don't know the mold #, it's a 200gr cramer mold. Someone made a home made sprue plate for the mold. Cramer put their identification makes on the sprue plated. The bullet is similar to the lyman 429383 that I used to own/shoot & foolishly sold.
Never bothered to chronograph target loads, accuracy is king & everything else is secondary so I can't help any in that area.
7.0gr of traailboss
6.5gr of international clays
6.5gr of american select
6.0gr of clays
All of those loads above gave me groups like these @ 25yds from a beater 629 with a tasco 4x pro-class scope with a target dot reticle from a rest on a bench.
I shoot/use a lot of target powders in every pistol caliber I own from the 9mm to target loads for the 44mags.
Some other bullets that will easily hold the x-ring on 25yd nra targets. These are 220gr hbwc's from a custom mold (Mihec). When I test wc/hbwc bullets I'll load them to different repeatable oals along with different lubes and lubed grooves. It used to be extremely common to only lube 2 of the 3 lube grooves in the popular h&g # 50 for the 38spl's/tighter groups.
A little off target but perhaps but another type/style of bullet to look at for the 44cal's are hb (hollow base bullets). I cast/use 3 different hb bullets, they are all completely different but all of them are capable of excellent accuracy and bring different things to the table.
TOP: A 220gr hbwc, loaded long/crimped in the top lube groove, very accurate.
LOWER LEFT: A 220gr hbswc (lyman 429422), it's the standard "keith swc" with a hollow base.
LOWER RIGHT: A raphine 200gr rnfp (round nose flat point) with a hollow base.
The hbwc does what any wc/hbwc does and as others have mentioned, accuracy falls off at short yardages.
The hbswc does everything the wc does & will hold it's accuracy longer/further.
The rnfp bullet is just as accurate as the other 2 an will help accuracy in any firearm that has timing issues (no bullet shoulder hitting the forcing cone) & will be more accurate at longer ranges than the swc and wc. The drawback of the design is it punches ugly holes in paper making them hard to score.
I have/cast/use these 3 different types of hb molds in the 35cals (9mm/38spl/357), 44cal's (pictured above) & 45cal's (45acp). Ton's of fun bughole bullets!!!
This custom mold maker (neo) has different wc and a hbwc mold for the 44cal's. I'm nothing more than a customer of theirs. They make excellent quality molds and unlike the big box store suppliers, they love being hands on/communicating with their customers.

Something to think about:
They made the wc bullet to be nothing more than a short range target bullet that's accurate, punches clean holes in paper and uses less powder (bullet takes up more case capacity). The other thing is the bullet's length, s&w/ruger uses a 1 in 20 twist, tc uses 1 in 22 twist. Less speed/less stable. I use/shoot the s&w's and the tc's, I get better accuracy with a wider range of loads from the shorter/smaller/lighter bullets.
Good luck
