I'd not try substituting jacketed into lead recipes. Just don't know if that works or not. However, you can get a lot of recipes from Hodgdon'
s and Alliant's on-line reloading websites. Probably a better source than Lyman for jacketed stuff. I was just trolling for a .30-40 recipe a couple of days ago.
