Versatile shotgun and pistol powders

[john 800]

I am wondering if there is a way to condense powders, just to keep inventory simpler.
I own 45acp,9mm and 357 mag pistols and load 12 and 20 ga shotshells.
For 12 ga trap loads I use red dot
20 ga exra light trap loads green dot or universal.
Blue dot for 12 ga pheasant loads
Enforcer for 357
Aa7 for 9mm and 45 plus p loads. Havent decided on what to use for lighter 9 and 45 loads
How to cover these with as few powders as possible?

Hs-6 is one that comes to mind…

Blue Dot is not only for shotgun loads, but it is excellent for 44 magnum and 357 magnum. I used it exclusively in those two pistol loads and was very happy.

HS6 is utilized as THEEEE pistola powder - 9mm/38/357/40/45. When I run out of titegroup (hopefully never), will be using in 12 g 1oz and 1 1/8 oz.

Red Dot works great in 38, 9mm, 45 target loads. AA7 will work for 357 up to just short of full power loads.

I like Universal and Unique for pistol rounds.

Clays is great for both pistol and shotgun. I use a LOT of it

Blue Dot also works well for the 9mm.
