Universal is a great all around powder (as is Unique, AA#5 and a few others).
I'm of the camp that the K.I.S.S. principle is a great tried and true principle to adhere to, so having a single powder that works well in every one of my pistol loads, as well as all of my shotgun loads, is a great thing for me. It simplifies what I need to have inventory wise and makes stocking up much, much easier.
I don't shoot my pistols for competition, so if the loads I like aren't 1 hole at 75 yard loads, but perform more than adequately at the distances I'm going to shoot (especially with range loads), then I'm a happy camper.
1 powder, 6 different firearms - hard to complain about that.
