I usually carry two guns to a stand too; a rifle and a shotgun. My shotgun is a Benelli super nova, rifle is generally a model 600 in 222. My favorite coyote load is #2 Hevishot in a 3 1/2" shell. I have killed several coyotes at 70 yards with this combo. I haven't had one run away from that load yet. I also like the Federal Tungsten-iron load with 3" shells in BB.
I have been carrying 3" copper plated BB loads (Federal) this week. I noticed on the side of the box it specifically states that #2, and BB are for predators!
