Here's an article that is a good reference for long range shooting with a 223.
Shooting A 223 Rifle To A Mile Accurately
Although it sounds like you're married to getting a centefire 22, let me provide an alternative....look at the 243. With the 243 you get heavier, better BC bullets. They will buck the wind waaaaay better than the 223 and they will shoot waaaaaaay farther than the 22s
The next jump from the 243 is to look at the 260Rem. Another great short action with great BC bullets.

what he said... i had a BVSS 223 1/9, i now have a LRPV 223 1/9 and both "will" shoot past 500, but for 500+ i use a 243 with 87gr Vmax
ANY gun in .22 has crappy ballistics past 500 compared to 6mm 6.5mm guns
