[QUOTE="BrianID, post: 1747107, member: 104589"] I have two 6mm Creedmoors and also like to hunt coyotes. I’ve killed about 100 coyotes in the last couple years so I have a good idea of what different bullets do on coyotes. I don’t think there is a perfect bullet for both long range (600+ yards) and close range coyotes. For the moment I’ve settled on the 80gr nosler ballistic tip. It still shoots ok at long range in wind, has good terminal performance for killing coyotes at all ranges. I’ve shot a couple coyotes with it at less than 100 yards. Overall I think it is a good bullet for coyotes but you will occasionally get fur damage. I think the 87gr Vmax would be a good option but they don’t shoot as well in my guns. I’ve shot a few coyotes with 115gr Berger’s and that is not a fur friendly bullet. The monolithic bullets like Barnes or hammers would probably be a decent option for fur friendly but I like the “shock” and instant drops that varmit type bullets like vmax or ballistic tips provide.
