This is off another coyote board. 35 gr Bergers did this. I wasn't the lucky hunter. 
Only accurate rifles are interesting....

35 grain Bergers are the only way to go for yotes 
26 grains of Benchmark works pretty well in three different rifles. I've heard of other guys using this load too.

Re: 35 bergers for yots
I just finished load testing and after a month of trying different powders and OAL's, I decided 27.5 grains of H4895 under a 35 Berger is the most consistant load produced. Benchmark was a close second. I hope to make a stand or two in the morning with hopes of first blood on my new rifle.

The 35 gr. FB HP Bergers are pretty effective on coyotes for me. I have used a good stiff load of H4895 behind that bullet out of my Savage 12VLP.

Re: 35 bergers for yots
My AR likes 28 grains of H4895 on the Bergers

Now that is impressive!I plan on giving those 35-grain Bergers a try in my Hawkeye 204 Ruger, and if they shoot, hopefully get a coyote or two myself this winter.
