I'm trying to put together a 200-240 gr load that I can use in both my Marlin 1894 and a Charter Bulldog or my SAA clone. Something good for all around defense. My only limitations are the sidearms and i'd like to keep the pressures standard for safety.
I thought the Skelton load looked intriguing from the data I had found, but I am glad I got a consensus!

I shoot only the .44 Special in my Marlin 1894 Cowboy Limited. My favorite .44 Special load of a Lyman 250gr #429421 over 8.0gr of Power Pistol with standard primer works quite well in my Marlin. I have never run it over the chrono with the Marlin but suspect it should be around 1,250fps or so.
