[QUOTE="Walker1, post: 587690, member: 17372"] I was looking for a new coyote gun a few years ago. Same as you I was limiting myself to 500yrds. I ended up with a Rugar Predator in 22-250 and put a Leupold VX-3 4.5-14x50 scope with varmint reticle on it. It has been one heck of a coyote gun for me. I have killed my fair share the last couple of years. My longest shot on a coyote was 435yrds. Some rabbits evern further. This combination has filled my needs. [media=youtube]JsBD_uE8qjY[/media] That being said if I were to do it all over again I would have bought the Savage. I found this article [URL="http://www.longrangehunting.com/articles/long-range-rig.php"]Long Range Hunting Rifle On A Budget[/URL]. Now I am on this forum always looking for info from guys that know. I bought my first Savage Weather Warrior in 7mmRM back in 09 and it has shot great. Haven't done anything to it but add a scope. Its already killed a handfull of deer and elk. Now I am wanting more so I bought another Savage Weather Warrior in .243 with every intension of swapping out the barrel for a 6.5 Creedmoor.
