I realize that a .22-250 is not the most fur friendly caliber for coyotes, but has anyone else had better luck with a hollow point or a ballistic tip? Thanks if your looking to keep the pelt, obviously lower grain round works best, but if your using the correct tactics, ie....calling, posting, calls, try a 17 HMR, bolt or semi. 17-20 gr round. Intrance and if you do have an exit? Keeps the fur nice. I've dropped hundreds of yotes with that round. But usually won't put a yote down past 100 yds? Maybe try a 45 gr. .223 if you don't have a rim fire? Good luck, wish you the best! Like ballistic tip.
