What are you going to shoot them in? I just loaded 5.5 grains os 231 behind a 250 grain LRN to shoot in my S&W 625 revolver. I have not tried it in my 1911 yet.

THE ONLY LOAD I KNOW OF WITH A 250 GR MY FRIEND IS USING N320 BUT HE HAS TO USE AN
11 LB SPRING TO GET HIS GUN TO CYCLE, BUT IT SHOOT LIKE A 22. I'LL TRY TO FIND OUT THE EXACT LOAD FOR YOU.

Start at 4.5g W231 and work up safely.
