.308 is overkill for coyote.......
Nope. No such thing.
I mean..........seriously.......smaller chamberings great. BUT..... I've seen coyotes hit behind the shoulder with both a .270 Win and a .300 Win Mag go a WHOLE LOT further than a whitetail would have if it were similarly hit. Also saw one (a female) hit through the middle with a .243 Win go a half mile......dropping pups and dragging 6 feet of intestines......get up under a dozer pile of trees. A buddy crawled in with a .357 and finished her and we had to pull him back out by his ankles.
Coyotes are T O U G H !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boy had a .223 Rem and I had a 5mm Rem Rim Mag this morning..........but only because I need to load some for my .220 Swift. I've shot a lot of different things. I ain't EVER killed anything TOO dead.
