Is 7.5 grains of Green Dot, behind a 250 grain cast boolit too much for a .45 Colt S&W 625?

Thanks

Green Dot is slower than Bullseye and Speer lists 7.0 gr Bulleye with a 250 swaged lead SWC so I wouldn't be afraid to use it
This is standard pressure loads.

Not even close in my opinion. It will outlast you by several lifetimes.

Should be no problem I have used 8.6g of Green Dot for many years behind several designs of 250g boolits in the 629 .44 mag Smiths, so 7.5g of Green Dot with the same weight boolit should be fine in a 625.
