looking back at my original post, that was 8.5gr of unique for a 44special using 429421.
as in second table or category two 22000psi or less, hand loader,36 brian pearce article on loading for 44special.
it actually started at 7.5 and went to 8.5grains.
the 22000psi category included colt single action army, new frontiersaa, charter arms bulldog, usaa imade in the u.s.
i probably should have called it a pearce load for certain revolvers. He had a categoy III which was warmer still 25000psi and under.
I have a n frame conversion from 28 to a 44special, i refer to it as a skeeter gun. and it has the 1950 44special barrel on it.
you are entirely right on 7.5grains.
