I'd have to measure mine for actual numbers.

My adjustment process is pretty simple:

1. Lower action until fret buzz becomes noticeable.

2. Adjust relief until buzzing is pretty close to equal no matter where I fret.

3. Slowly raise action until majority of buzz is gone, then tweak by feel from there until both chords and bends are easy to play.

4. Set intonation.

All this presumes that the frets are well leveled and the nut slots are properly cut. Uneven frets will thwart trying to get a really low action if that's what you're after.
