Desert Eagle 44 load recipe

Greetings all. I've been digging through the site trying to find a specific recipe for my DE reloads. Havent found anything yet, so wondering if anybody has a good recipe for the following:

HDY 200gr XTP bullet
CCI 350
Accurate #9 powder (how much??)

I found some info for the Accurate powder on a 240 and 180 gr bullet, but nothing for a 200 gr.

Any ideas?

thanks in advance!

200gr Hdy JHP WWLP primer, WW cases...

AA No.9 19.4gr 1301fps (start)
21.5gr 1450fps (max)

7.5" barrel
Data from vintage AA loading booklet

I shoot 180gr JHP over 21.4gr AA No.9 out of my DE, (not sure the fps) it functions MY gun flawlessly (1990 vintage DE)

hope this helps.
