No one can really answer that; I'd work from a Lyman manual to start. It would be a big plus if you cast your own bullets. They will likely outshoot jacketed bullets if you're an experienced caster.
If not, I'd go with jacketed and try as many bullets and powders as possible. Shoot plenty of fifty-yard benchrested groups to confirm accuracy. A lot of work, but load development is usually the most rewarding aspect of handloading.

Good for you. Sounds like you're on the right track to success. For handguns, a jacketed bullet offers no advantage over a well fitted cast bullet of the proper alloy for the load. Of course, this includes accuracy.
