Coyote gun build

[Coyote Shadow Tracker]

Nothing wrong with a 22x47 Lapua either.

1st one I built was a 23" 8" twist, 80 Bergers at 3370.

I sold that barrel, and put on an 18" 12" twist, 52 Bergers at 3800.

AWESOME!!!

22 Creed or 6mm Creed.

Easy Button ^^^^^^^

22 or 6mm Creedmoor is the easy button for sure. Something more fun might be a 22GT, 22 Dasher, 22 BR or BRA. There's fun to be had there and I'd stick with something in that list or closely related to it. There's a reason those cases in 6mm are so common in competitions.

What are you running speed and grain wise?

For sure. My gt is unbelievable accurate and it likes whatever I put in it. I remember when I was first load testing I had 7 different charge weights and bullets I shot one of each at one dot the group was still under 1 moa. Its by far favorite load is h4350 under a 109 Berger in the lands.

I have thought about 22 gt, dasher, and arc just not sure what I want to settle on. The 22x47 is catching my eye though

22gt

^ This
My 22" 22GT is pushing 77TMKs @ 3200 and has wrecked coyotes out past 750.
Alpha SRP brass available
Super easy to find a load. I tried 3 charge weights each with the 77TMK and 85.5 Hyb. Loaded some up, and shot #19 out of the barrel was a coyote at 750. Haven't touched the load since.
Light recoil
Light charge weights

Shot #19 from the rifle

77TMKs work very well

The truck where the shot was taken from is WAY off in the distance

Lance - that's a seriously baller package.

 

[Idaho Trecker]

6 dasher 16.5" barrel
Smashed one from the deck a couple years ago around 800 yards with this rig.

That is one slick rig. The 22gt has always been one I was really checking into since I like my 6 so much.

I've built coyote calling guns in 22 & 6 Dashers and never had any issues feeding them from a BDL magazine. Some do, so unless you're running detachable bottom metal, I wouldn't recommend them. GT I don't know if they're enough longer to run in a BDL error free.

A 22 or 6x47 Lapua feeds like butter, & gives up little to the CM in performance.

With Peterson brass, it's easy button is as easy as any CM.

My gt runs flawlessly in my BDL
