You don't specify if 44 Special or 44 Magnum or some other.
So here goes for 44 Special: Start 6.0, max 8.9
44 Magnum: Start 9.0, max 13.0
This data is from Lyman handbook #45, dated 1970 and was for a gaschecked bullet.
Start low and work up. If you wanted data for a 44 other than the ones I listed, let me know.

and the special loads down a bit [5 grs] if you want some light,light loads.
