Another vote for the 22-250. I have seen far more coyotes eat a .223 and run off to die than I have with a 22-250. Most of my coyotes shot with a 22-250 are DRT.

Most of my coyotes shot with a 22-250 are DRT.Coyotes shot with either one in the right spot and good bullets don't run very far. Don't blame poor shooting on a cartridge. I have to wonder how many of the recommendations for a 22-250 here are just because it's what that person owns...
With that said, if you reload, get a .243 and just load down. You can push a 55gr ballistic tip from 2,500fps up to 3,900fps if you want or load 100gr pills for deer. I've got a very reduced recoil load with 55's that my kids have been shooting since they were little ones.
