So I couldn't find any data for this particular combo so I called Barnes and they said they had info on Varget and 53 grain. Start was 25.0 to 26.3. I was thinking starting at 24.0 and going to 25.2 in .3 increments. The rifle is a CZ 527 varmint .223 1 in 9 twist. Brass is brand new Lapua Match .223. WSR Primers. COAL 2.250

You should find a sweet spot with Varget between 24.5 and 26 grains.

I would but I want to use up this RL15. Plus I have heard it's pretty good stuff.

I need RL15, I'll use it up in my Swifts if you need to get rid of it. I use H322 in my 223's with extreme accuracy.
