H322 or H335 for 52gr 223 AR-15?

Which one of the (2) powders do you recommend? I'm leaning towards the H335.

I have loaded both powders with good results, but I have a lot more H335 in stock, so that is what I use.

H335 is the powder I use for all 223 rounds that I load.

Load for my .223 Win 70 bolt gun. Started with H322. Very accurate. Went to get more and my shop was out. Used H335, worked that load up, very accurate. Went back for more and guess what, no H322 or 335. Picked up some Benchmark. Worked the load up and guess what, same. Loading 40g V Max, 50g Blitzkings. Don't see any difference in accuracy with any of these once I found the right load for my rifle. Guess I'll use what I can get.

for the 52 gr bullet I give the edge to the H332. Most accurate in my 1 in 8 twist .223 and I did try the H335 with the 52 gr. pill and it too was good, just not AS good.

The lighter the bullet the more the accuracy edge will go to H322.
