Scope Recommendation

[cropdamage]

2.5-10 x 32/42
3.5-10x40
4.5-14x40
3-15x50

Coyote hunting is not always calling. A little more power is helpful at times.

For the shooting possibilities i come across, i also opted for a 3-18x50 (athlon ares, moa). Most shots are under 200, but hangin up at 600+ happens sometimes. I rarely bother with those shots tho, but the scope is up for it if i choose to. Id rather mark it and come back 2-3 weeks later and give another go.

I got my howa 204 primarily for prairie dogs, and it has an 8-34x56 athlon on it. Sweet for that purpose, horrible for coyote stands! 8x low end is way too high. I only used this a couple times when my buddy used my primary, but it was rough. Ill likely switch it for the 2.5-15x50 thats on my 17 hmr tho, just to make it actually reasonable to use on stand if i want to.

I've had good luck with 3-15x scopes for open country calling. I rarely need to zoom past 6 or so but do use max magnification from time to time so it's worth having.
