Red Dot is a fast but rather bulky powder. I've used it with .45 200gr SWC loads, 9mm 115gr jacketed, .38 spl with WC's, in the .357 mag as an economical powder with both 158gr LSWC's and JSP/JHP's as well as cast bullet loads in the 30-30, 8mm and .308.
For the .357 mag 6.0 grs behind a 158 gr JSP is a full power load. Never chrono'd it as in the days I was loading it Chrono's where beyond the means of most reloaders. Red Dot loads can be found in any of the previous Alliant and Hercules "free" data pamphlets as well as earlier Speer and Lymann Manuals.
