Default NEXT GUN???

I have a .22,shotgun,pistol (44mag), .270, & 45-70


I need somethin smaller than the 270 but not to small
somethin to shoot coyotes maybe deer and somethin thats relatively cheap on ammo(not somethin like the 44 and 4570 were the bullets are outrageous)


Thanks for the help,


Dustin

Buy anNEF.223 single shot with the heavy barrel. This gun is very accurate. Ammunition is plentiful and cheap. Bought one at Gibson's in west Lawton many years ago. It has taken a bunch of coyotes.i often shoot them with the 55 grain military round. They die as if struck by a bolt of lightning.

.243 shoots a 95 grain bullet with 1200 retained foot pounds of energy on out to about 150 yards, minimal but good enough for deer with a well placed shot. 25-06 is another option.
