My last 8 have not had exit wounds. I am going to try the 40gr nosler ballistic tip This year because they group great in my Tikka T3 SS Heavy Barrel Vamint. I will be taking the .204 and 12 gauge M3500 Stoeger semi auto with Hornady Coyote nickel plated BB for the 50 yard and closer coyotes.

Personally if I wasn't such a .204 freak I would have a 22-250.

Enjoy which ever you choose 😁
If you can find them the 35 grain bergers are an awesome fur head.

Round wise anything between 17 hornet to 243 is a right answer if you understand the basic traded offs.
