For a .223 with a 1:7 twist rate and a 16" barrel, the ammunition choice for accuracy can depend on a few factors such as the specific rifle and its preferences. However, in general, heavier bullet weights tend to stabilize better in a faster twist rate like 1:7.

For accuracy purposes, you might want to try ammunition in the 69 to 77 grain range. These heavier bullets are commonly used in rifles with a 1:7 twist rate and are known to provide good stability and accuracy. The extra weight can help counteract wind drift and maintain stability over longer distances. I would check out https://choiceammunition.com
