Personally, I'd make it simple cut right to the chase:

Kimber 84M Montana .223
Talley LW
Leupold VX3 3.5-10x40mm M1 elevation turret
60gr. V-Max for practice and 62gr. TSX for hunting

Granted, there's other options available, but several would entail additional expenditures (rate of twist is not optimal on most factory offerings).
