Need some input here as to best reloads for hunting coyote 50-80 yards. Your recommended bullet, powder, primer, brass and gr's used. Thanks

I use my same, mostly everyday load, Rem case, Rem 7.5 primer, 27.8 grains of H4895 with the 32 grain v-max or 34 grain Varmint Extreme. But I do not save the hides, so a large entrance and explosive damage does not matter to me. If you are wanting to save the hide then this probably not work for you. I am just out to lower the numbers of varmints. Bill K

Haven't shot a Coyote yet.A friend sent me a box of Hornady 20cal 45gr SP,and just for grins,I loaded five in WW virgin 204r Brass w/26gr of IMR 8208 XBR and 71/2 Rem primer.Rifle is a Rurger K1V Varmint w/1:12 twist.I didn't believe the bullets would stabilize,but the group went into .292.A big surprise.I Chronographed the load the nevt day for an average of 3450 FPS ,26" barrel.The bullets were factory blems.I didn't repeat that first group (6s-7).

My coyote load consist of Winny brass, Remmy 7 1/2 primer, Berger 40gr bullet, and Ramshot Xterminator powder.

It hasn't let me down yet!
