Default 220 swift-overkill?

I'm looking into a predator set-up for NE Pa, where realistic shots will be under 300 yards. I have a couple of spots that would offer those distances and slightly beyond but I'm thinking mostly closer shots. I've never hunted coyote before but I'm under the impression they don't come as close as deer for shots?

Anyway, I love older calibers and don't care about availability of ammo but I'm thinking the 220 swift is meant for longer range hunting? Any problems shooting animals at closer range with this round (pelt wise that is)?Thanks.
