[QUOTE="Wanfalt1, post: 1316660, member: 101097"] I respectfully disagree! Light bullets don't always work. Sometimes they do. Often with a poor shot they leave a massive hole. I have done a bunch of sewing!! I would shoot a heavy for caliber bullet no matter what the caliber. I have killed several coyotes with a 6x45 and I think it does well. 223 works great until you shoot a 40 gr. 3500 fps. muzzle velocity. I really would like you to read some of the fella's posts that kill a lot of coyotes. I have spent my entire life trying to perfect the process. I will say without fail you are better off with a heavy for caliber bullet. Penetrates better, expands less. I am sure I will get growled at for this. I am prepared. 100 grain 6mm bullets will kill a coyote with a running away shot. 58 vmax won't always work. Give it some thought before you flame me. I shoot a .17 with a heavy for caliber unless I am in bear country then I shoot what I brung. Usually a 6.5mm [/QUOTE]
