I have my new .45 Special brass and my .45 Cal 150epp/ug big lube bullets but am trying to find how many grains of Unique or Trailboss powder to use to reach about 650 to 700 FPS when fired.

Any help would be appreciated.

Here's a link to the Trailboss reloading data. I like it for my main match powder. It's easier on your pistols (the '58 remmies are black powder frames and made of softer steel) and hand because it is slower burning.

5.2 grains of Unique or 4 grains of Trail Boss, both under a 200 grain LRNFP are my loads.
Of all the things I've lost over the years, it's my mind that I miss the most!
