Titewad in pistols?

[YALE]

I grabbed a can of titewad thinking it was titegroup. Anyone know if I can use it in 9mm or .44 special? It's basically really fast shotgun powder. Worse comes to worst, does anyone want to trade it for some pistol powder?

EDIT: The interwebs say it's close to Red Dot in burn speed.

None of my 3 manuals (Sierra, Hornady and Nosler) list it in any load data for either round.

From the manufacturer's website, there is only 1 load listed for 9mm and none listed for .44 Special. None of my load books have anything.

124 GR. BERB HBRN TP .356" (Berry's hollow base round nose thick plated)
1.150" COAL
Starting load 2.9 gr 847fps 28,700 PSI
Maximum load 3.4 gr 942 fps 32,200 PSI

Starting load is <3gr? FUCK YEAH! That's like 2300rds per pound of powder! Cheap practice rounds to the game!
