Default 357Rem Mag 38Spl Velocities

Hello all S&W Reloading Enthusiasts.

My current go to reload for plinking with the
357Rem Mag reload:
38/357 .358dia. 148gr Lead DECW Double End
Wad Cutter.
3.0grs Alliant Red Dot, CCI SP #500 primer.
Brass is 357 Winchester, or R-P.

Crimp is what I call medium roll crimp.
FPS approximately 750?

Bullets are tumble lubed with Ben's Liquid Lube
for Lead Free barrel performance.
Primers no where near flat.

The thing about Red Dot is it has enough bulk,
that it is easy to visually see a double charge.
I'm a single stage, small batch reloader anyway.

Other powders I've used and like are; Bullseye,
Unique, American Select.

Be Safe, the Best to you and your Endeavors.
