Anyone load Varget in there 223 ?

Loading for a bolt gun with 1/9 20" barrel.

Any Advice ?

Wanted to use Varget as I would like to stay with the same powder I load 308.

Thanks

25 grains of VARGET over a 69 sierra matchking is pretty popular in service rifle. 26.5 grains work well with most of the 52 grain bullets. you can pick up the Hornady 52 HPBT for about $150 per 1k. both of those loads will shoot ragged holes
