it's fine if that's all you had, through trial and error i discovered that my handgun likes Triple Seven. it gets really great velocities and shoots quite flat considering what it is! and one of the best parts, even though it's expensive one pound will last you practically forever! it only takes a little bit of powder, about 25 grains per cylinder for all the chambers to be filled. i found i can take the 25 grain spout on my flask and fill all my chambers with it. i just guesstimate, when plinking it's not that big of a deal if you are 1/10th of a grain off.
