Best current powder for 6.5G?

[vaguru]

OK, currently is the deciding factor. Lots of good powders have come and gone for this cartridge. What is the "best" powder currently made, not necessarily currently available.

Factors affecting "best" powder include: highest velocity with 100-123 grain bullets, high temperature stability, potential accuracy, clean burning and case fill. Anything else you can figure into these factors appreciated.

Thanks for all replies.

Another vote for 8208

Everybody has their favorites. After a fair amount of messing around, the two I have settled on as my top choices are Ramshot TAC, and ARComp.

[DeNinny]

I like TAC best with Varget a close second. I also work with AA2230, AA2520, and CFE223.

Never tried 8208 or ARcomp.

always here people says varget is too slow

Im currently shooting speer 90g tnt and hornady 100g interlock and have found Benchmark to be about perfect, also run 8208 but Benchmark gives me better accuracy.

[EastTNHunter]

I use the following:
-RL7 for cheap, low recoiling plinking loads with 85gr Sierra varminter hps
-Benchmark for 100gr NPTs
-H4895 for 120-123 bullets (SMKs, SSTs, Amaxes, etc)
-Tac for 129 Interlocks

What charge do you run, for those 2 bullets?

Lever Evolution is showing a lot of promise, @100 yards I put 6 out of 10 into a ragged hole but the other 4 were at the 2 MOA mark which was probably me. My AR skills need a lot of practice

H335 does it all.

30.2g with the 90g and 28.5 with the 100g. CCI 450 primers.

AR-Comp, i've tried the ball powders and settled on AR-Comp.

I get it. It typically hits max load in the middle of the velocity range, so I can never get the highest speeds with it as compared to TAC and CFE223. But supposedly it's very temp stable, and in my personal experience it produces tighter groups than CFE223.
