The issue with case density doesn't mean you have to use small amounts of powder such as Unique, et all, but it is more efficient and cheaper.
For calibers with large bore expansion ratios you can often use powders that are much slower than normal
H-4895 is ~118 or so on the burn chart.
When you get up into the real slow stuff that's up in the 170 and above the powder never gets up to pressure with light weight bullets in larger bores, so the bullets go slower.
The bad part is all the unburned stuff and the higher cost of each round.
