While both Benchmark and XBR 8208 work well in my .223 rifles, if I want accuracy I go to Varget. I will happily give up 100 fps or so for those ragged hole groups that Varget has given me so many times over the years.
When a powder has shined like Varget has for me for so long it's mighty hard to not get very fond of it.
