[QUOTE="GTOHunter, post: 766403, member: 64883"] A .22LR is a little small for Coyotes,if You use some of the CCI Stingers that have a little more powder and they are hollow-points it would be better! The 30-30 caliber You mentioned would be the next best one You have to use,it will reach out further and have more knock-down power especially if Your able to use the Hornady LeveRevolutiion Ammo that shots flatter and further out! Whens the best time to Hunt Coyotes....early in the morning,set up before sun rise in the area You know they will be in and watch for them.It would be even better if You had a Rabbit in Distress Mouth Call to blow to draw the Predators in for a shot. Late Evenings work very well also,again set up in Camo and hide in good cover so You won't be seen moving around to take a shot...again any type of Distress Call is good to use to get those Coyotes coming in to You,a Fawn Call will work,rabbit Calls and so on.An Electronic Caller would be nice but if it isn't in Your budget right now stick with the mouth calls and watch down-wind because the Coyotes usually circle down-wind to smell whats making the sound! If You have ever Deer Hunted the same tactics can work for You when Predator Hunting...I suggest trying to stay scent-free and hunt the wind..another cool trick is to use a motion decoy of some type or a simple Feather on a short string tied to a tall stick blowing in the breeze will draw the attention to the Feather and off You while calling or trying to shoot!If Your shooting long distances a good rest or shooting stick is a must for a steady shot! Other Great Calibers that work better for Coyotes,Foxes and Bobcats that don't do as much damage to the Fur/Hides is the following I would reccomend.Another thing is to use a light weight bullet with a ballistic tip so You have penetration but not a large exit hole to damage the pelts. .17 Fireball .17 Hornet .22 WMR (Magnum) .22 Hornet .204 Ruger .220 .221 .222 .223 .22-250 .243 [/QUOTE]
