85% / 3RM or higher for me, anything else I use hook grip to work on hand strength.
For some its more of a personal preference than others. A few guys I know cannot pull well using a mixed grip, but succeed when they pull double overhand. Figure out what works for you. The above is my person use of grips. Also on a side note, ditching wrist straps for accessory work will do wonders for grip strength.
