3/4 of a inch is good enough on running coyotes in my swift, the most important thing is don`t ruin the coyote hide ! its worth money to us. worried about accuracy ? then shoot a different rifle I have plenty bench rifles that shoot 2`s -3`s all day long. this 220 swift is fast and was built to kill things and save the hide with a small bullet hole that`s why I use 60 gr. Partitions ,when shooting at running coyotes you need a fast rifle that shoots flat ,when that coyote breaks across a field you have no ideal how far or close this coyote is ,your lucky if you even have a tree or a car door to lean on ,so you take the shot quickly.
