The good news is, there are a whole lot of powders that work well in the 45 auto - especially if you reload shotguns, as a lot of shotshell powders work nicely.
All the powders others have listed are good recommendations. To those, I would add AA #2, AA #5, and WST.

I happen to use Win 231 not necessarily because it's the best but when I bought the Dillon 1050 at an auction it was set to load 231 and i got a lot of the powder at the auction...so that is what I shoot. But listen to Rocky or any of the others .. All suggested powders will work. 700X Red Dot Green Dot and especially Unique are my favorite mid range pistol powders.. And I have a lot of those powders because I used 'em for shotgun. Especially Unique in the 20-28 ga.. 357 44 Spec and Mag..
