The OP stated that he would want such a rifle to kill coyotes, and if the need arose, he'd shoot deer for the meat. That pretty much narrows it down.
Since this is a thread about bolt action rifles, my choice would be a Remington 700 or 7 in 243. The 243 might be the best coyote cartridge out there, and it will kill any deer that ever walked. You could go to a bigger caliber, but why.......you don't need it for coyotes, and you don't need it for deer. If you like short, lightweight rifles, you can get a 243 in one of those. If you want a heavy barrel rifle, same thing.
Lots cheaper to practice with a .223 and barrel life will be 4 x longer than a .243. A .223 will kill any deer or coyote that ever walked if you put a good bullet where it belongs.
