Coyotes are soft skinned animals requiring less penetration than deer or hogs. Ribs are much smaller and don't deflect or hinder bullets as much. I've shot many yotes with the hornet and with the vmax bullets they are very competent rounds for yotes. 200 yrds would be about my maximum if I wanted to ensure a clean kill, but I have shot them farther than that and killed in one shot. I have had about 25% at over 200 drop but not die clean requiring a followup. Most of this was wind drift and at night in West Tx, with the 35 grns.But it is a fantastic low recoil round and there are many platforms made for it. I shoot it in a contender in 14 in and 24 in barrels.
