I’ve shot a bunch of coyotes with copper plated lead #2’s and like them better than BB’s but not as good as #4 Buck or the T shot dead coyote load. If I had some 1 7/8 oz 2’s I would use them. In a properly chocked 12 gauge you will turn them inside out at 50 yards. Can’t comment on the bobcats.
I am also going to try and get bobcat as well , I could have killed some during deer season but i was unwilling to stir up the woods at the time . I would rather hunt one than it be a target of opportunity
