    In general you want to use something faster burning than what you would use in a long barrel but there are restrictions to this as you will find pressure earlier with a faster powder, there seem to be some exceptions to this rule such as reloader 17 which seems an excellent powder for most calibers in a short barrel, despite being designed as a powder for large capacity magnum cases
