What is the best powder for 308?

CFE223 has been my go to powder for .308 since it was first released. My 27″ & 1:10″ tube runs 2.8″ magazine feeding pre-green tip 155 SMK @ 3000+ and 175 SMKs @ 2,800+ out of Lapua brass (LR not Palma). The rifle has a 95 Palma chamber, so if its safe in mine, its likely safe in virtually every other .308 out there.
