Heel based powder choice?

[tokguy]

Was gathering up 41 LC brass yesterday and found a few with a cracked neck. Had a bag of Heeled bullets so I trimmed the brass ( 0.93 ) and pressed a few into place.
Now typically my go-to load for 41 LC is 4.3 - 4.5 grains of Unique under 195 gr HB...4.3 is my personal plinking load, 4.5 is for when my 41 has guests shooting it. A little more snap...pleases most guys.
Anyhow, I ran about 4.4 under the heeled bullets, they are almost identical weight wise as the HB. Slightly undersize of my bore, they bump up though.
But noticeably more primer flow.
Anyone else here done the Heeled vs HB comparison? Any thoughts as to an alternate powder that the heeled one's might like better?
Thanks Tok

Can you crimp the heeled bullets or do you just rely on neck tension ?

Crimped. Can't get good neck tension with regular dies...recoil will shake them out and lock it up.

I use hollow base bullets and found that bullseye worked better than unique for me. Unique didn't seem to bump them up enough to get any accuracy.

Bullseye is lawn fertilizer IMO...no offence. I 'Train Wrecked' a Steyr-Hahn using Bullseye...put the fear of god into me. To small of charge for it's power, been bit...no thank you.
Got the HB thing down pat, just pondering the heeled bullet thing now.
