I have been shooting coyotes with the 40g Win hp for 20+ years. I have tried many of the bullets. I have had Ruger 77's, Browning A Bolt, Mauser, and Cz.
Couple of things that I have learned:
Plated bullets lead up a barrel in a hurry, so I will only shoot a jacketed bullet.
30-32g can fail you on coyotes, but great on small varmints.
Clean your barrel every 250 rounds to keep your 22 Mag shooting sub 1" groups at 100 yards and often less.
The killing power of a 22 Magnum with the 40g Hp is awesome to say the least. I could not get Federal 50g to stabilize in any of my rifles. 40g Win hp will shoot holes through Coyote shoulders.
