I go with the data for Jacked data but.............
do not exceed the fps for the company's bullet data.

That being said......
I have used a very slow "Unlisted" powder on a plated 115gr ball type bullet
and it was accurate but only did 701fps and had two stove pipes !!
I also pushed a 1200fps rated plated bullet to 1376fps, without it flying apart.
there were no fragments on the target, this time!

Since plated bullets are usually for target use, they will be shot in the "Middle" fps range
and should never present a problem for the shooter.

Well, at least that is my two cents worth.
