As the title says if you had 2 grand to spend on a coyote rig what would you get? This means all in; rifle, rings, bases and scope. I have a CZ 527 in .223 that I use right now and I love it but I am thinking about a change. My thoughts are on a Tikka T3 Hunter in either 22-250 or .243 with a Ziess Conquest 4.5-14X44 scope. Might take it over budget by a few dollars but i think it would be a sweet setup.
Sounds like a good choice in rifle and optics and caliber. 243 allows another deer rifle in the arsenal and a varmint back up. those 55 grain 243 bulllets are smoking at over 4000 fps.
Lots of other choices in optics under $1000 and rifles to keep you under $2000 total. I have a BRNO (CZ) 22-250 with a Leupold scope as well as the Varmint Stalker series of Xbolts from Browning.
They all work just depends what feels best to you.
I have a Tikka T3 .243 heavy barrel. Great gun to shoot. Have a nice scope on it too, I can't recall I have to look at the model. I was out on Sunday shooting silhouettes at 500 yards in a pretty strong head wind. So I'll say +1 for the .243.
Also have a 22-250, not a tikka though, still a great gun to shoot as well.
$2000 to spend on Coyote rifle.
a hunting we will go!!!!!!
