[QUOTE="Kansaswoodguy, post: 1237700, member: 83267"] I use CFE223 with 55gr vmax and IMR 8208 with 75-77gr if you get in the low teens for SD your there dude about as good as it gets in a gasser. I'll pull off a single digit SD once in a while for 5 shots but that 6th one will kill it. A gasser is not a bolt gun and typically your not going to shoot 10 shot groups with single digit SD's. Their are guys that claim to own a AR capable of it and I'm sure there are some guns that can. I own 8 AR's and none of them can do it consistently. I have Lother Walther, DPMS, WOA, and Kreiger barrels in the mix. I love AR's but a bolt gun they are not. I will say I have all the powders you listed and don't use any of them because the two I listed are more accurate in the majority of my guns. Bl-(c)2 and Win 748 are in my opinion the same powder neither gave me great accuracy. Ive only tried a pound each of Varget and Benchmark so take that for what it's worth. [/QUOTE]
