If you got a 204 I would suggest the 35 & 40gr Bergers. the 35's have become the fur handlers choice & the 40's really pack a wallop. Folks have had good luck with all the bullets on coyotes but the 32's seem to splash on shoulder hits. HTH & Welcome to the Forums!! :wink:

I like mine although it needed free floating and bedding to get all of the potential. Mine really liked the 39 SBK and only the 40 so-so. I have some 35 Bergers loaded up to test out, hopefully this weekend.

If you are going to reload I definately suggest the 35 or 40 gr bergers but there is also the 45 gr SP by Hornady that is also available. I use the factory offerings by hornady in the 45 gr SP and they work awesome. No offending holes, great for keeping fur and they have a decent B.C of 0.245 so they tend to buck the wind pretty good. I have shot coyotes in the head at 270 yds, in the next at 250yds and broadside/angling away at 200yds and all of them were in really decent shape for selling the fur. No sewing at all!
