.204 to .243 all work well. if ar format, 204 for follow up shots if calling areas are tight so yotes come in closer. low recoil in 204 allow multiple shots w/o target re-acquisition. best bolt cartridge, for all ranges, ie tight and wide open country, .243. 55 gr bullet at 3,900 fps has best ballistics and knock-down compared to any other (if your rifle likes it). 2nd choice 70 or 75gr bullet in 243. Swift can shoot smaller bullet faster, but not 55gr. I've shot multiple coyotes beyond 600 yards with this configuration and they were doa. best ballistic/knockdown for coyotes. 223 works....I don't care for ballistics (compare 55gr .223) rounds are cheaper...not important to me. I see yote rifle as sniper type...one shot, one kill...so cheaper ammo or bulk is not relevant to accuracy requirement....also not for prairie dogs...this is a best coyote configuration. it depends on what you want, ie how accurate, how far you wish to take out a coyote. Scope, quality 4-14 30mm tube at least, 3-18 30mm if you can afford.
