........Ball C 2 will work but I have had the best results with H335...it gives high velocity, good case filling and meters well and burns clean enough........I don't have any good loads worked up with the similar Ball C2......good luck and good shooting-loading!

josebd,

I'm on my third 8-pound keg of H-335.  Use it for my Contender barrels chambered for 223, 30-30, and 7-30.  Ain't found any powder better for all the calibers mentioned.  Good-luck...BCB

I have found sub HALF MOA loads in .223 Rem. using H335, W748, BL-C2, Varget, AA2230 just off the top of my head without looking back at loading data. I like the gun tell me which of them it likes and go from there.
