I'm curious as to why you'd recommend a bullet at the top of the weight scale for .223, and more built for deer sized game for coyotes?

I have punched holes through coyotes with heavier, sturdier constructed bullets, and had them run like winged Pegasus more times than not.

From years of killing 300 plus coyotes a year, I'm in very good company when I say that probably the best coyote killer out there is a 55 or 60 grain V-Max. Usually no exit on a coyotes as well. Vast majority of them fall right where you shoot them.

In my opinion, using a heavy bullet in a .223 would be defeating the purpose.
