I do not load .223 anything yet. I'd like a heavy soft point or hp bullet recommendation 62 -72+ gr range. Hunter not match. I'm leaning toward cfe 223 but open to suggestions. H335 appear popular. Eventually the load will be thrown with a Dillon 650 so something forgiving would be nice. If that statement gives you a twitch, go read the last issue of "Recoil" on reloading.

I saw another less advertized copper fighting powder the other day. Has anyone had success with anything other than cfe?

About the only thing left to buy is the forward handguard. I'm leaning BCM key-mod. I do not expect 200m to be interesting when I'm done :)

If you are looking for hunting accuracy, despite having a match grade barrel, then there is nothing wrong with using CFE223 in the bullet weight ranges you've specified.

The other copper fouling eliminator powder that I would recommend for accuracy and temperature stability is IMR4166, but it is extruded so isn't as nice to load on a progressive.
