[QUOTE="davidu, post: 2534070, member: 115072"] IMR 8208 isn’t even close to Varget as already posted. Others also mentioned how much they like 8208 for 223 heavies. I tried IMR 8208 with Berger 80.5’s, SMK 77’s and Hornady 75 ELDM bullets in a M24 contoured 7 twist barrel with uneven results. Also, the biggest problem is 8208 gives very little warning before its pits and blackens your bolt face. Personally I have found H4895 to be an excellent powder for 223 heavies. I know this is a bit off topic [/QUOTE]
