#2 would be great for bobcats and fox if your shotgun patterns it well. I wouldn’t hesitate to use it for coyotes but would probably limit the range to say 35 and in. If you’re thinking 50 or more with lead shot, I’d want plated BB at least, #4 buck would be better but that’s less pellets so it’s important to know your patterns at different ranges.
TSS changes all this, can use #4-#2 shot at further range because it typically patterns very well at further ranges and is much denser than lead to penetrate thick fur. $$$$$$
