Ken,
Both Unique & PowerPistol will work well in all 3 calibers, although I load very little for the 40 S&W.
I've been pretty much converted to PP lately as it's cleaner than Unique, meters very accurately and the load density on those cases is good.
I would STRONGLY advise you to be EXTREMELY careful with the 40 S&W, especially if it's a Glock.
They advise against handloads; problem can be the small unsupported case head......some guns are worse in this respect than others.
If you do it, go to the light side on the loads.
I haven't had a 40 in a while but just picked up a new one last week.......won't load much for it, if all all. Ball for routine practice and a few of what I'll carry in it every couple of weeks to to verify function.
I use the 45's for most routine shooting & loading; 6.7 gr. of PP with 200 gr. LSWC's & 6.4 gr. with LRN's. Same for jacket bullets.
With the 9mm, 6.1 gr. with 124 gr jacketed bullet & 5.3 with 147's
