223 with IMR 4064

[davet]

I used IMR 4064 with 55 grain bullets out of an AR and was getting groups just under 1.5" at 100 yards. My average speed was 2864 FPS out of a 16 inch barrel, other loads were faster but not as accurate. I am not the best shot and I had kind of a cheap barrel at the time so I would suspect better groups can be had with that combo.

I've had some impressive groups with SMKs and 4064 at 100yds out of a 20" 5.56-chambered AR. I can get reasonably close group sizes with H335 and 55gr nosler varmints, and since H335 meters much better, it has become my load for my .223/5.56 rifles.
