Default Prep for Reloading

The last several days I've been cleaning, and
preparing to reload for 44 Special, 44 Magnum,
and 45 Colt that I used over the Winter.

My current, go to, plinking 44 S&W Special reload is;
240gr Lead Semi Wad or RNFP round nose flat point
works also. 5.0grs Alliant RED DOT.
5.0grs Alliant Red Dot, S&B LP primer
Brass is Win, or R-P.
Crimp is what I call medium roll crimp.
FPS approximately 800?.
Bullets tumbled lube with Ben's Liquid Lube,
for Lead free barrel performance.
Primers no where near flat.

44 Magnum is basically the same above,
but 5.6grns Alliant Red Dot.

45 Colt is 250gr Lead Semi Wad or RNFP round
nose flat point 6.0grs Alliant RED DOT.
