You can cover a lot of ground with Varget, CFE 223, and TAC. For primers 222 and 223 Remington 7 1/2 for 308 Remington 9 1/2 are what works the best for me.

Ramshot TAC is one of my favorites in that range/use.

Always got great groups from 4064 in my 30-06 with 150gr. spitzers.

Used 3031 for lightweight .223 bullets.

Good old Win 748 works well also. I use it almost exclusively in my 308 loads, and probably use in half my 223 loads....with TAC or AA2230 used in the rest.

IMR 8208 XBR for me. It's essentially just 4064 that meters worth a damn.
