I use bull’s-eye powder for 45 ACP so I have the powder. Does anybody have a load for 455 Wembley using bull’s-eye with a 265 green bullet something on the you low power end. Instead of me using black powder.

I'm thinking you mean 455 "WEBLEY"
You need to supply more information, such as which model of firearm you intend to load for and which bullet weight.
There are many antique status pistols that are chambered for the round, all the way up to S&W large frame "New Century" revolvers.
Some are easily capable of digesting 45acp loads with any powder, but many aren't.
Ken Waters gives several loads for the 455 Colt-Eley, which is a North American designation for the same cartridge in hi Pet Loads series.
205 grain - 4.7-5.0 Hensley & Gibbs swc lead
215 grain - 4.0 - 5.0 Markell swc lead
250 grain - 4.0-5.0 Remington rn lead
265 grain - 4.5-5.0 Ohaus Keith type
225 grain - 4.5 - 5.0 - Hornady jhp
If you're shooting these in an antique revolver, use the start loads
