I'd forget the deer part and make it a 20 Practical for the Coyotes and PD's.

The TCU chambering are not worth the trouble. They require fire forming and very little is gained over the straight 6 X 45.

.223, 1-8” twist, load up 75gr Speer Gold Dots, or Speer factory loads with the 75gr Gold Dot if you don’t handload. Shoot em’ I’m the front half and have a sharp knife handy.
Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

With what you already own and what you say you want to do with it an 8 twist 223 makes the most sense to me by a long shot

If you had a Howa Mini Action rifle with a .223/5.56 boltface, what would you rebarrel it to for a coyote, PD, and occasional deer hunting rifle? 6x45 with a 9twist barrel. Awesome chambering and brass is cheap This for sure esp if you’re ruling out a fast twist .223 or .223 AI

You CLUELESS Fhuqktards are a hoot! Hint. The Howie Mini's are COAL trite and a Goat Fhuqk Platform for 223/223AI...if only because boolits matter wayyyyyyyyy more than fhuqking headstamps. Hint. Simply bush the .378" 223's 'face,along with the striker and it's hole. Go 22 PPC AFI and bask in the fhuqking sanctity of 88 ELD and 90 BeerCan magfed Smooches. All of which crush the 6 ARC and 6x45(pardon my shooting it all). Hint. The OEM DBM is Fhuqking Dog Schit and trite. Hint. Just sayin'.Hint. A 6x45 needs wayyyyyyyyyyy more COAL,to even have a fhuqking chance and pardon my shooting a "few". Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!..................

Hint Hint, I don’t want or need anything else with the PPC boltface, I’ve already got that covered with the 224 Grendel and 6.5 Grendel. Also, the first thing I got rid of was the factory DBM, and installed a Jefferson Outdoors BDL style bottom metal.

May look into a 6mm-22 Nosler. It will give me 30+ gr of H20 capacity with a rebated .378 boltface.

So a 22 Grendel correct?
Lotsa appeal in an AR for me there if that’s the case.
