Reduced rifle loads
Sure you can use the cast bullet data for jacketed bullets. But don't use the low end stuff for jacketed bullets have more friction and can stick in the barrel easier than alloy.
Top end cast bullet loads should give no issues with jacketed bullets. You can go lower, but watch for stuck bullets as they will show up when you get very low.
You can even stick cast bullets if you go too low. But you can get by running them lower than jacketed before they stick.
There are so many variables, that I really don't want to start posting numbers.
