I'd use the 53gr data and depending on the bullet profile I may even use the 55gr data .

Powders :In my Sierra book the 52,53 and 55gr bullets all can use the same powders . I use IMR 4895 and H-335 using 55gr bullets in my AR loads . I've used others that work just fine but those are my go to powders . Those two work quite well . For accuracy I use 4895 and for higher velocity I use H-335 but they both work well for the 55gr bullet .
