I've found that jacketed hollowpoint bullets shoot accurately when driven very fast. Coated lead bullets can produce good accuracy with fairly light charges. Jacketed bullets can be taper crimped, while coated bullets shoot most accurately with little or no crimp (as long as the bullet stays in the case). I do my accuracy testing at 25 yards. If you don't plan on testing at that range or greater, just about any load, as long as it will function reliably, will work.
