recipe for good loads for 16 inch yankee hill barrel 223
He needs to hit a 16" tall barrel on top of the hill with Yankees from 223 yards .... duh!
I'd start with some bulk 55gr FMJ boolits, H335 or BLC-2, and go to town. Is the twist rate 1x9?
Once you get a load worked up with that, try some more exotic loads.
I'm assuming you're either new to reloading, or new to loading for this gun; or both.
If not, I'll echo what the previous poster asked: what are you looking for with this load?
Reliable, cheap, and fair accuracy? If so, go back to my first comment.
If you're looking for more accuracy that cheap, then 69gr are supposed to be pretty good with 1x9 twist.

Compressed H4895 load works VERY good in all my ARs over 40gn and 60gn VMaxes.
