Default .223 Barrel Length

I can't use my AR for hunting groundhogs and coyotes in PA so I'm going to buy a nice bolt action varminter rifle. I'm looking at all brands and makes and see barrels from 20" to 26". What is the optimum barrel length for this caliber? I will probably be shooting between a 50-60 grain bullet. I'm not worried about weight.
