What's the most efficient way to copy a column of cells from one spreadsheet to another?

I am trying to copy one column of cells from a spreadsheet to another (append it at the bottom). The code below works, but I was wondering if it's possible to do this without a loop. Is there a faster or more efficient way of doing this?
function CopyToAnotherSheet()
var sourceSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var srcSheet = sourceSpreadSheet.getSheets()[0];
var destinationSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById('15-vXNpnzSEKzcqhBmJ_D173rwGyM7TOAZE1iL_wsf2A');
var destSheet = destinationSpreadSheet.getSheets()[0];
// Get the contents of a cell in srcSheet
var range = srcSheet.getRange("xposed!A1:A")
var values = range.getValues();
for (var i = 0; i < values.length; i++)
destSheet.appendRow(values[i]);
Cheers!

you can use the getRange() method with setValues to setValues() to set the range as the array only.
Refer this documentation for getting a clear idea Document Link
function CopyToAnotherSheet()
var sourceSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var srcSheet = sourceSpreadSheet.getSheets()[0];
var destinationSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById('15-vXNpnzSEKzcqhBmJ_D173rwGyM7TOAZE1iL_wsf2A');
var destSheet = destinationSpreadSheet.getSheets()[0];
// Get the contents of a cell in srcSheet
var range = srcSheet.getRange("xposed!A1:A")
var values = range.getValues();
//returns last row of the destination sheet
var lastRow=destSheet.getLastRow();
//starting from the last row, it will apend the array in the column
//getrange(num of row to start from, num of column to start from, number of rows in array to append, num of column in array to append)
destSheet.getRange(lastRow+1, 1, values.length,1).setValues(values);
