What is it about Unique? There are other flake powders out there and you don't here them getting bashed? I'll be the first to admit ball powdres meter better. I can get 5" groups at 100 yds out of a SBH Hunter in 44 mag using Unique and a Magnus 240 SWC. That same load using a Berry plated 240 RN will not stay on a 20" X 20" target. That Berry bullet is a great bullet - it just don't work for me. Unique is a great powder - it just don't work for everyone. I guess I could go to all that trouble to make the Berry bullet work but why? The Magnus bullet works just fine. The Berry bullet is a fine bullet and Unique is a fine powder - it just don't work for everyone
