Federal Gold Medal Match 175's are the standard for long range in an M14 style rifle. They use 43 grains of 4064, with a muzzle velocity of 2600 fps.
I consider that to be the top end for an M14 style rifle. I use a Schuster overbored/ported gas plug to save wear and tear on my oprod.
Federal uses the same load with the 168 grain version, but the velocity comes out a little higher at 2650.
