I have only recently started reloading. I have been having a great time and have learned a ton by reading the posts on XDTalk. I load a mix of 9mm (XD 9 SC), .38 Spl (Ruger LCR - the wife's) and .40 S&W (XD .40 SC and Taurus 101AF). I normally load and shoot lead from Lasercast and SNS Casting. I have been using Unique for all of my loads. I have come up with loads that are reasonably accurate in all four handguns, but I am looking for a recommendation on whether to change powders when I run out of my current stash (probably another couple hundred rounds).
The Unique does not seem to meter all that well. I have the Lee powder measure that came with their anniversary kit. I check the charge weight after every ten charges. If it is off by more than .1 grain, I dump those ten and re-calibrate the measure. I can't afford a new measure right now (but Christmas is coming!), so I was wondering if the accuracy issues could be minimized by going to a different powder.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
