You didn't list what primer you are using. If you go to the Hodgdon Reloading Data Center there are a ton of loads for Win Super Handicap. If you use a Cheddite primer there is a recipe showing the Win WAASL wad at 1180 fps and 7400 psi with 1 ounce. Same speed and psi with Win 209 primer. There is lot of data that is easy to find and lots of options with that powder.
