RE: What will a 270 do to a yote?
A dead coyote is a dead coyote. But if you want to sell the fur, have it mounted, or something like that, then yes, it is over kill. In my opinion, the .223 is the most suited for coyotes. I personnaly shoot the 22-250, and from what I have experienced with it and from having several friends with the .223, I would opt for the .223.
