Coyote bullets

[swiley383]

What’s a good bullet to use in 223 rem to hunt coyotes? Thinking the Hornady Vmax looks pretty good and mid south sales varagadon bullets what are your thoughts? I will be shooting a M&P 15 with a 1 in9 twist. I also have on hand some CFE223,H335 and reloaded 15 have not used Reloader 15 in 223 yet. Also looking to pick up some AR comp soon and maybe some acurrate 2230.

To be honest,  I use 62 gr tsx with Hbn2 and a bunch of H335 for deer down. It does a good job. A buddy uses 77 gr TMKs.

I’ve been using 55gr vmax with Ramshot TAC powder. It has worked really well for me.

65gn Gamekings over a pile of Varget for me.

52 gr. Sierra BTHP with 4198 with the trusty .221 Fireball, but then really, ANY .22 centerfire recipe put in the RIGHT spot will drop yotes quicker than lightning. Make the shot and they will drop.

The last one I got was with a 230gr Hornsby Cypriot with 100gr of pyrodex.

Our coyotes can sometimes run a little heavy, like 50 lbs+. A lot of bullets will work but, I'd use 55 gr. or heavier.
