What bullet for 223

I have a Savage Varminter 223 with a 1-9 twist rate and a 26" barrel. What would be the optimum bullet (weight, length and type) for coyote hunting? I would be shooting out to 300yds. at the most. I have quite a bit of H335 powder on hand also.

62 to 75 gr, I am a big fan of the sierra match kings but donot know the game performance with them using a .224 bullet, however I imagine their game kings should ne kickass!

I just loaded Hornady 68gr BTHP Match and Nosler 69gr HPBT Custom Competition bullets over 23gr- 24.5gr of H335 powder. Will be going to the range shortly to check accuracy of loads.
