I used to use 22.5 gn of H335. It wasn't the fastest but it was the bestest.

Varget and the 69gr Sierra did well for me in a M70 HV with 1/9 twist

23grs/H335/68gr Hornady Match BTHP.
Very good accuracy in the 1 in 9 twist AR15's.
Velocity is 2750fps in a 20" barrel.
This is a good bullet varmint (coyotes) bullet to.

i used 24 gr h335 with the 69 gr nosler, only thing is that i find the 60-65 grain bullets shoot better in almost all of my 223's, that said i had a styer varminter that shot the 69's into about 1.5" and patterned everything else

RL-15 wasn't listed in your post but it is probably the best. I used 24.5 gns.
