There is no regulation limiting your choice of coyote caliber outside of modern furearm deer or elk season. Not a leo, but im right. Only reg limiting caliber is that its illegal to use a .24cal or larger during mod deer or elk, unless you have a valid deer, elk, coug, bear, moose, sheep or goat tag good for that place and time.that's what I thought, and I hate that rule you just sighted but will comply....

to simplify the statement, He says its illegal for me to use my new 6.5 Creedmoor to spotlight but he is legal with his .22-250
Tell him thats ridiculous. His .22-250 is a legal cougar caliber, and cougs are big game and xannot be hunted at night, so how does his rationalization fit that? Your friend needs to spend more time reading the regs, and less time guessing what they might be.
