I normally use Varget, but I am going to keep that for bolt gun ammo for now.
27.3 gns of CFE223 and a Hornady 55 FMJ go the same velocity as 26.5 gns of Varget, and it will also shoot just under 1 MOA 10 shot groups out to 400 yards. Time will tell if it is really cuts down on copper fouling. Not that is a huge concern, I have access to cleaning rods and patches...
