I've used a lot of unique, and have a cousin who is addicted to it from .38-30-06 (seriously) I never liked it much because I could never get past the poor metering characteristics
I used a lot of blue dot in .357, .44 mag, and 9mm cartridges, and was never less than happy with it. I killed my first deer with a charge of Blue dot under a bulk win 158 jhp in a 6" Dan Wesson .357...
that is why I settled on the 5.0 win 231 load, accurate, hits hard (my shooting buddy nuked my chrony with a .380, and I never replaced it)
I always liked the 200 swc with 4.0-4.5 gr Bullseye, but a friend who always cleaned my clock on the range years ago got me to using a charge of 5.0 win 231 with Missouri Bullet Company's 200 gr swc,...
