Anyone using this cartridge. It’s a 1in 9 twist so 70g or better. Bullet recommendation? Looking for the least hide damage. Thanks

Check out the Hornady line of cartridges they make loads with bullets from prairie dogs to deer. I’ve seen the most damage from hot hand loads with bullets that blow up near the surface or on shoulder hits making a big mess.

Head over to Predator Masters. Apparently that is the “only” coyote caliber.
I just want them dead and care nothing about fur. Also wanted something hogs can still tote and die elsewhere. Even that isn’t a guarantee when aiming center mass, they still drop on the spot or don’t make it far enough from the bait site.

250s are bar none the best coyote cartridges made.
50/ 55 grain bullets.

Myself for fur friendly bullets I've stayed towards the tougher more controlled expansion bullets. Some prefer the fragile bullets hoping for no exit and that is great when it works but rough when it doesn't. I'd rather sew up a small exit hole on every pelt than have a huge one every 5 pelt. But there's guys out there with more experience than me so take my opinion however you want

Yes

40 grain V-max is all I've killed them with out of the 250.

They are far from fur friendly.

I shoot 55 gr ballistic tips most of the time. My son shoots a lot of coyotes and he shoots Sierra 52 gr hollow points. He doesn't get a fraction of the fur damage i get. I'm going to try them this next winter. I only shoot around 20 or so a winter. He calls a lot and takes around 50 a winter, not much fur damage at all

60 gr Sierra hollow point was fur friendly out of a 243 running about 3100 mv.

52, 53, 55 bthp

Sierra

Yep. 52 or 53 grn Sierra Match Kings.
52s are the boat tail version and the 53s are not. That's the only difference between them. Speer makes an equivalent in the 52 grn that's just as good.

Best fur friendly bullet out there for 22 centerfire IMO.

Through the years I've seen them loaded as factory ammo. I can't remember by who though.

I don’t remember who’s bullet he uses but Less Johnson kills a pile of coyotes with a 52 gr. Boat tail hollow points out of his 22-250. I’ve found that just because you can shoot 4,000 ft/sec. doesn’t mean you should . For accuracy sake , and pelt damage , slow it down .

Lol, Wanna be have you ever seen a coyote with fur ? I’m going to send a coyote to a buddy of mine in Florida because he has never seen one.

Stay away from those bullets made to explode prairie dogs.
High speed/ frangible bullets and hitting bone is a disaster.

I have had pretty good luck with 50 grain Nosler varmint ballistic tips. Used to use the sierra matchking for years and years but had a run where I was getting fist sized exits on broadside shot through the ribs coyotes so I switched to Nosler. Not sure if I just got a bad box or what

I was and still am a big fan of the no longer sold 52gr Amax. Always had acceptable results and accuracy. No bullet is 100% fur friendly all the time. If you shoot numbers of coyotes you will see. Sure, if you shoot a couple every few years you may have experienced a couple perfect results. But depending on angle, distance, bone, outcomes will vary. Death is my first concern, then hopefully no or very little sewing…

I like a .243 best on the bigger eastern dogs.... .22-.250 will get it done most of the time, but it's a little light in the britches on out there, IMO.

I've tried many different bullets from 40/ 60 grains.
Unless they quite making them, I will be a Super Fan of Sierra 55 grain boattail softpoints. GameKings. #1365.
Have shot 100s of coyotes from every angle (important) and they just flat out work.
When I used to run n gun in tournaments, I'd giggle ( under my breath) when I knew some of the teams were shooting V Max bullets. When minutes count " $$$", I want them dead where they stood, not wasting time chasing cripples.
There is nothing a crappy bullet will do then a good bullet can't.
Other then save a few bucks.

I load mine at about 3650 fps.

Better stick to bucksnbears ace.
