any of the 22 caliber loads will do a yote in. but if your hunting in woods or where the shooting might be close, you might want to bring a shotgun too. i have an AR-15 that i plan on hunting yotes for here in upstate new york. but i plan on sighting in my turkey gun also for thoseclose and personal shots. range as you know is limited, but if you plan on using a decoy or remote call, place it away from you and set up at a 90 degree angle to the wind. the yote will see/hear and come in if he hasn't been called before. if he has or is just the cautious type he'll circle and try to wind whatever it is thats making all the noise. might be a good idea to get some fox piss or varmint piss to give them a scent to further make the situation real. good luck and hope you clean those pesky critters out
