Varget RL17 and N-135 have done it for me in a Rem 700 with the 80 grain Amax.

Another vote for Varget but RL-15 is right there also. If your loading on a progressive take a look at Ramshot TAC, flows like water and very, very close in burn rate to Varget and '15.

24.5 gr. 4895 + 75 amax = 1k .223

I am working on varget and IMR4895. 24.5 varget, 24-24.3 on 4895
You need to get very close to the lands to see best from these as always-YMMV

I am having great but similar results with Benchmark and varget. Cant hardly tell a difference. My Armalite 24" target ar is shooting these 75gr a-Max in the .3's Very impressed. I just didnt know what powder had the best burn rate for the heavier 75gr bullets? Lee

I have never been a varget fan but my LTR loves the 75 with a dose of Varget to move it along.
