Jason-

I use 24.5 grains of Varget. This isn't max, but happens to be the most accurate in my rifle.

Gunner,

I agree with Gary. Varget has given me the best groups with my AR's (three of them).

I used the 75 grain A-max last year at Camp Perry, they worked great out to 600 yrds. However, this was with a 1/8 twist barrel.
