I'm currently reloading 75gr bthp Hornady for my 18" 1-7 twist ar and would like to tailor a load with a more varmint oriented bullet. I would like to stay at 70gr+ so I can continue to use reloader 15 powder and higher BC values. I have a stock of reloader 15 that use for my 25-06 75gr varmint loads. Are varmint bullets available in this weight for .224? Or should I just use the 75gr match for varmint hunting? Thanks.

I think match type bullets are all you'll find in that weight range. They won't (consistently) perform like varmint bullets, but they'll kill them just as dead...and cost more.
