I am looking for some views or input on hogdon benchmark powder. I have been loading 55gr vmax's with 25grains of powder into a .223 with it. My first loads into the brass I am using were what I consider very good. 1" groups at 200yrds. Now my second loads into this brass are grouping 5" at 200yrds. Planning to hit the drawing board again and am considering looking at different powders along with different bullets. What are the thoughts on this powder? I am pretty new to reloading and haven't tried any other powders yet.
