Eppie,

Only you can tell...if the powder drop doesn't shake at all while indexing, you're doing all you can.

Varget is one of our "go to" powders, for the .223, .308, and 7.62 x 54R.
Typically, I can get consistency within .2 of a grain. Not great, since we shoot long range, but because of the quantity I load it's a compromise.

We use 8208 XBR also, which is extruded, but smaller grain, and meters much better.

I've found that no matter what, I get some vibration of the drop due to the sizing station. If I drop charges without a case being sized, it's much more consistent. I still get some movement/vibration of the powder drop, despite stiffening the bench top. I've got to get it more "rock solid".
