[QUOTE="rawjuno, post: 2838382, member: 120346"] This is my first post but predator hunting is some thing I’ve been doing for many years. I personally use a Ruger American Ranch 16 inch barrel 556/223. I also sometimes use my cz17 hornet. Majority of my kills have been 40 yards or less. I personally probably won’t ever build a coyote gun and will only use over the counter rifles. My predator guns are down and dirt gun which I don’t care if they get scratched and the areas I hunt that would be something very likely. My nice rifles are designed for larger game. But the people I know that have in the past have built off of a Kelby action in either a 22-250 or 243ai. Other options which I feel would be better for today is 6mm, 6.5 Grendel, 6.5 creedmoor. When it comes for scopes I primarily use a 2.5-10 power scope and it usually never leaves the 2.5. Unless I am pretty certain I have a good shot On a predator for long range I potentially will pass on it so I don’t educate. We have way too many coyotes and predators that have been educated because people are just talking long range shots without a realist ability to even kill it. Just my .02 cents [/QUOTE]
