You got good buddies!  Have them zero your rifle/scope @ 200yds, shoot it yourself to confirm and go hunt!

You can swag it, but you'd most likely just confuse the heck outta yo'self.  Your range 'calculation' based on a guesstimate of a coyote's size will be nothing more than that.  And the further the distance, the larger the margin for error (missing or wounding an animal).

  With a 200yd zero, holding on center mass to 250 will cover 96.725%   of your called coyote shot opportunities.
