Favorite coyote gun??

Recommended Posts

For accuracy reasons I have never really liked the Vmax. Just can't get them to pattern like Bergers or Sierras.

I load 35g berger varmints in front of 28g of Varget. Great load for predators

.223 bolt gun has been my go to for years on a calm day. 8-10 mph wind I shoot a .243 bolt gun. 12 gauge 3 inch mag 4 shot for close range thick stuff. Just picked up an Ar in .223. I am trying really hard to like it, but so far I hate it!!!! Just my .02

.223 wssm, 36gn Berger is not loved. At 150 yards I has explosive results. Put milk jugs out at 300 yards. After a few rounds of not hitting I got concerned. Had a buddy shoot while I watched vapor trail. Saw the bullets explode before hitting the target due to speed! Bumped up to 80. Gn VLD'S after that.

223 AR with 20" barrel with 12ga in my lap. Used to shoot a Model 700 17 Remington, better for pelts but not good in the wind. Love the AR when doubles or triples show up.

Lots of factors come into play. Terrain you hunt in, whether you keep the fur or not, and the money you have to spend on the rifle itself and the ammunition in the future. If money was not an object. I'd get a .22-250 in an AR-15 platform.
