If they still make it. But then I've read that Varget and 4895 are pretty much the same thing anyway.
People in highpower competition like Varget and 4895 but they frequently use heavier than normal bullets in 20" or longer barrels. 55 grain bullets in 16" barrels might benefit from a faster powder.
There are a lot of powders usable in .223. Nobody has mentioned H322 yet but I've heard that it works well with lighter bullets.
