I'm a big RL 7 fan, in both the 223 and the 22.250...

even if everyone seems to tell me that fast powders and shorter barrels, make no difference in velocity than slower powders and the shorter barrels...

but then again, in my short barreled 223, which got traded off.. I burned a lot of Blue Dot with 40 and 50 grain bullets...

I use that powder and SR 4759 a lot in many of my 223s, with bullets 50 grains and under...and they give me accuracy results like that...

4198 is also a good 223 powder, either one of them...
