After testing with several powders including HS6 and Unique, I like Universal for 9x19mm for the reasons given above: uniform results, clean burning and good metering.
You should have no problem getting 1100 fps in a 5" barrel.
My SDB is set up for 4.6 Universal with a 125 gr Hornady JRN and an OAL of 1.150.
This delivers ~1150 fps in a 5" CZ85 and just under 1100 from a ~4" HK P7.
It is not a max load in these guns.
As always, check several sources to verify load data, start low and work up carefully.
Be safe and have fun !
