CFE223 - 1 moa, which is tolerable but not optimum for my liking.

TAC - 1/2 moa with acceptable velocity @ 2820 fps. Go to hunting load.

All with original 155 Scenar in Lapua brass, 22” barrel. All of theses powders are reliably temp stable.

So what's your objection to using a compressed load? There are many powder/bullet companies that list compressed loads. Just curious.
