RE: new to reloading
It would be much cheaper to reload, but if you intend to hunt coyotes with it as you suggest in the small game forum don't load FMJ's. You will need something that expands or fragments on impact. I load Hornaday 40gr V-Max in my 204 Ruger, and my buddy loads 50gr Sierra Blitz Kings in his 223. We have taken several coyotes this year with a few around 350 yards, and not a one has gone more than 10 steps from where it was hit.
