[QUOTE="Chopaka81, post: 733439, member: 9217"] I think you need to first ask yourself if you are going to save the pelt(s) or not. Many guys are just doing predator control and not interested in retaining the hides - just helping out a land owner and getting in some field time. If that fits your situation then do not monkey with varmint loads in a big game rifle. My 130gr load is very distructive on coyotes leaving melon size exit holes. I have no reason to believe a lighter weight bullet would not exit unless it was loaded down to 2,400 fps or so. A max load 130gr or 87gr (or whatever) 270 load is way over the top for collecting pelts. Bottom line, bring a half dozen garbage/leaf bags with you when you go coyote hunting with a 270 Win.
