[QUOTE="aeropb, post: 1745946, member: 5846"] Lucky for you .223 is a really easy caliber to load. Virtually any powder listed will get you a working velocity and accuracy. AA2230, Varget, BLC2, TAC, H332, H335, Benchmark, are all great. Here is a good link. [url]http://www.6mmbr.com/223rem.html[/url] Throw the clean burning idea out the window and stick with price+accuracy. Worrying about clean burning powders is something for bolt action shooters. AR's are filthy animals.. they poop where they sleep. And then they wallow around in it. Just clean your gun before it stops working. Once you fully delve into the world of handloading you'll realize that caliber name is just a marketing ploy and nothing more. Virtually no caliber name matches the actual diameter. A good example is the 38's. Nothing named 38 actually even measures close to .380 (38SC, 38S&W, 38LC, 38 spl, 38acp, 38 super, 380acp, etc) [/QUOTE]
