[QUOTE="Creedmoor shooter, post: 1626277, member: 72601"] I use the 140 eld-m. Makes a mess out of coyotes. While the 6.5mm is a great coyote/fox round, you may want to look at the 6mm as well. Coyotes or fox dont give you a heck of alot of time sometimes to dial and shoot so flatter shooting may help some. Wind is another consideration as well. In general the 6.5s will drift less with the exception of one or 2 bullets. I dont think either is the wrong answer. I shoot 6.5 just because that's what I've always shot and I know the 6.5 very well. 6mm does have less recoil to spot your own hits better which could be another advantage. [/QUOTE]
