I have a Savage Axis in 22-250 with a 4X12 Leopold scope on it. That is my coyote hunting rifle. My behind the seat in the pickup rifle is a Rossi single shot break action 223 with a cheap 3x9 scope. Both will kill any coyote. The 22-250 has a bit more reach. I had a Ruger Mini 14 in 223. It killed a few coyotes. It wasn't the most accurate rifle I have ever owned. But with a 20 round mag if you missed the first shot you could find out how many gears that coyote could grab with the next 19 shots.
But frankly I have killed hundreds more with a little old H&R 9 shot 22 revolver. But they had a #3 Victor trap on a front paw.
