Maybe for the competitor who hand weighs or trickles his charges & wants/need the very last drip of accuracy, but for everyday Joe for plinking & general shooting, even in SPR type rifles, there are numerous much better choices today.

I’m not nearly as up to speed on powders for .223 as you guys, I just like varget mainly because I can use it in a half dozen other cartridges and, 26 gr under a hornady 55 shoots well enough for my needs from 3 ar’s.
