Powder ID 44mag

I tried some reloads for 44mag, which turned out to be very accurate.
I lost my data sheet, and cannot remember what the powder type was.
The powder charge is 3.5grains. The powder granules are flat discs. Their color is grey throughout, with no other colors.
Does this powder sound like Bullseye?
Any other guesses?
Thanks.

That's what my bullseye looks like and at only 3.5 grains, that or Red Dot are about the only powders that would work.

Don-T. Thanks.
I found a picture on the web, and the powder I have certainly looks like Bullseye.

Please, Please, Please confirm that with a good loading book..........You're not really going to load using the old "Well, it LOOKED like Bullseye Method" , are you?

Hey Tubbs,
I have it covered. 3.5 grains of bullseye wont hurt in that cartridge. It will be a very mild load. Thanks for the concern.
All the best and a Happy New Year.
Flatnose.
