    I would suggest AS-50N. This works very well in straight walled 44 mag cases, giving a velocity spread of only 1 to 2 fps with a mean velocity of 1020 fps . 7.4 grn x 300grn projectile.

    If your case has a similar bore to powder charge capacity / case fill as the 44 it should work otherwise as shooternz suggests.
