The 55 gr Hornady SP worked very well, and you can sometimes find them in bulk. No fancy poly tip, but they do the job.

Looking at this again, I think it makes more sense to use the same bullet on coyotes that I do on deer and hogs than the one I would use for praire dogs and targets. Shots I will take while coyote hunting will max around 300 yards, although the reason I was liking the looks of the 53 Vmax was it packs much more punch out to 300 than many other bullets due to its BC.
However I will be much more likely to see a hog while out coyote hunting, or have a coyote come by while deer hunting, than I would have a praire dog come out at 400 yards while calling yotes. It looks like the Sierra 1365s are a top choice, I will look into those.
