"WESHOOT2
Unique's modern clean-burning easy-metering alternative = Hodgdon Universal Clays.

Reeeeal close to Unique in burn rate; real close.

Or, Alliant Power Pistol, Vihtavuori 3N37, Accurate AA5.

While I still keep a jug of Unique around, I burn buckets of Universal Clays, most specifically in revolver chamberings.
I am NOT stuck on one powder; I use twenty."

PLUS 1

PDshooter,
Give Clays a chance. If 99% of your shooting is with a H&G 68 you will love it.
I use 3.8grs Clays in my 1911 and it's very soft recoiling, very clean and very accurate.
