Another vote for the 44-40, with the 357 second.
The 10.6x25mmR German Ordnance cartridge, also called the 10.6mm Reichsrevolver, the 10.6mm Service Ordnance, or the 10.55mm German cartridge. Easy to load and tremendous fun to shoot. The first time I shot it, I shot at a can about 30 yards away. Had a hit or two and several near misses. Every shot ricocheted and when the bullets hit the trees about 100 yards away, it sounded like an axe swung hard and sideways hitting the trunks. Loaded with Lee 214 gr SWC over a few grains of Unique. I had written to PO Ackley and used a load he recommended.
Spell check doesn't work in Chrome, so if something is spelled wrong, it's just a typo that I missed.
The big pumpkin roller - 577 snider besides a 'killer' at both ends it is very accurate!
Hold Still Varmint; while I plugs Yer!
For me about any strait wall with carbide dies, probably 45 ACP is the most loaded. I load on a old turret press and don’t load large amounts at any one time.
I do have die sets for 34 cartridges, but change bullets often so for many I haven’t stopped experimenting.

Like Jedan, about any straight wall cartridge with carbide dies but the 9mm luger is in there 'cause of the carbide dies I can use. 38/357 and 44sp/44mag are tied at the top of the list with the 45acp a bumper back at the lights
Used to be .45acp but I no longer own one. Eventually 9x19 will be #1 as I get more comfortable with it. For the moment though I would say .38 Special gets the gold medal for me.
38 special ,and 357 magnum.Both are classic and sexy!
