I run a T/C Venture Predator in 2250 with a 22" barrel. It shoots sub-moa at 100 yds. I topped it off with a Nikon coyote special but I think a better reticle than the predator BDC is needed for such accuracy. It is an awesome gun for the money and scope combo for about 1000 all together. Only...
I hold over for wind. As for elevation on some of my scopes I have reticles that allow for hold over. Then on Leupolds I have used use a BDC dial like the CDS. I like using hold over for close in since it allows for quick follow up shots, but for the accurate longrange shot nothing is better...
Wife doesn't hunt but I want to get her into it. She target shoots but has grown out of it. I can't wait to introduce my son and daughter to target shooting and hunting. I am already looking at rifles and shotguns for them.
Thanks for all the advice, its primarily a sporting rifle and if necessary a long shot of 450 might be taken with it. I may try a bedding job to see for myself if it will give my Savage any accuracy.

I am new to hunting coyotes myself.
Just got back from the Scatter Creek Wildlife area it seemed promising but I didn't see much in the way of coyotes. I saw some tracks and some scat but didn't see one in 1 day scouting and one day hunting called for 3 hours didn't see one. On the way back to...
I personally would recommend a Harris Bipod (6-9") that swivels. I have used the Versapod as well its pretty heavy. Being able to take it on and off quickly is nice. It has adjustable heights via springloaded legs. You can also mount a sling on the mount it self. It swivels too much though and...
I'm Leadchukr. I am a target shooter and am new to hunting. I can't wait to get out there and bag a few coyotes and maybe some whitetail. This is all I dream about now.
