Anybody using this ammo for coyotes? Looking at soft point bullet options for short - mid range 22-250 loads for heavy cover / woods hunting . Heard the brass was decent and was going to try to find some. Will probably reload the spent cases with sierra 55 btsp #1365, but was wondering what kind of performance on coyotes people may be getting out of the factory rounds at short - medium ranges.
Appreciate any input you may have to offer.

Thanks,
YB

Can only state the Privi in 9.3x62 is best bang for the money going. I would expect the 22-250 Privi to be satisfactory at least.

I use the Privi and Monarch, same ammo, Monarch is packaged for Academy.

I use it in .223 55gr. soft point. For bobcats and yotes it works great.

I use the spent brass for my Blue dot "light" loads. The brass is at least as good as Rem or Winchester.

If your shooting 1-14 twist hot loads over 3500fps may not work well with this barrel, and soft point bullets 55 grn and over. I had the same problem with the v-max hitting grass and brush and exploding, I went to a bthp called the dogtown by midway usa and found I got a litttle more penatration check outt he link for good info on the 22-250

Appreciate the info prkrgrp. My bbl is 1-12 twist. I decided to just tool up my bench for the 22-250 and roll my own instead. I'm gonna try the Sierra #1365's over some Varget and see how they fly.
Thanks,
YB
