.223 LOAD ?

I have a CZ527 heavy barrel in .223. I am trying 8208xbr powder. I would like to stay with bullets from 40-55 grain. Anyone got a suggestions on some loads?
 
Go to Hodgdon's web site. Their load data is pretty spot on. The rest is what ever your rifle likes regarding seating depth and charge. My 527 had a LONG throat. Set the shoulder/breech face back and re-headspaced and accuracy improved a fair amount.
