This is a little off topic, I reckon....but is this gun going to be specifically for coyotes? If so, given your price range, a H&R in .223 would be about the same price and quadruple your range.....it's a single shot, but accurate.

But with the rimfires, I'd personally go with the Savage in .17HMR....several of the varmiters around here use them as their primary 'yote and crow gun...I"ve seen kill shots out to about 150, and very little hide damage, if you were worried about that.
