Default Shorthanded Games: 3-betting preflop

So far in my shorthanded play, I've found that I've been challenged a bit pre-flop. I've done some research, and what I've seen by way of 3-betting standards has been pretty loose.

Two charts I've looked at suggest 3-betting:

-Pairs down to 7 (I'm cool with that.)
-Ace-suited down to 10, 9 on the button (Eh, if it's multiway I've been cold calling. I should be raising for value?)
-AK-AJ with A10 being marginal
- KQs and KJs with K10s marginal from the button
- KQ (are you guys 3-betting this?)
- KJ from the button marginally?
- QJs from the button?

I don't think I 3-bet enough if this is the case. Let's say it's 5-handed and I'm on the button. It goes limp, raise. Do I reraise k10s?

I would normally call.

****** Here's another hypothetical along the lines of raising for value. Blind play though:

Playing 5-max games, I see a lot of 3-handed pots like this.

You're in the big blind. Loose-passive calls on button, weak small blind completes.

What range of hands can you raise here for value from the BB?

What about if there's one more limper and it's 4-way? What hands can fit in that range now? Will PokerStove compute this for me?
