Mine's a bit boring. 30-06 Winchester 70 shadow hunter CRF. The gun I use the very most, as it's the most versatile gun I currently own. Leupold VXR Fire dot 3-9x40 30mm tube.
My coyote load
•Hornady 178gr ELDX bullets
•Winchester brass (because it's cheap)
•Federal large magnum primers (because it's what I have, can't find my normal CCI primers)
•Reloader 19 at 59.7gr
•COAL 3.320
as always work up your own loads because I am only .1 or .2 from pressure signs.
I find that it's plenty good enough. As long as I don't hit the shoulder they're weak enough that it doesn't expand too much. Leaves a 30 cal hole on one side and .5-1" exit hole. But If I go through shoulder it leaves a fairly large exit, so I try not to do that in any coyote that I plan on taking the hide of.
