I've looked into all the Manuals I have and found H335 listed for jacketed bullets only.
All the powder listed for a cast bullet were pistol type powder or the IMR SR types.

Ranchdog has a 265gr cast bullet load listed with H335 in LoadSwap's rifle data.

Thanks if I reduce this from 56gr to 50 will that be a good starting point?

I don't think I'd reduce it since you're already working with a lighter bullet, the Lee 2nd lists 57gr compressed start to 59gr compressed H335 for a 250gr bullet which means jacketed.
