Default new scope for .243-

Having never owned a .243 before, moving up a little from the .204, what would be a good scope for a .243 with a 22 inch barrel used mainly for coyotes and possibly groundhogs? Would one of the 3x9-40mm be the best all around choice? Or should I consider going up some in power to say 12 or possibly 50mm? Many of you own and shoot the .243 so I could use some helpful suggestions--also, what weight bullet would give good performance, there are a lot of choices out there. Most of my shots range from 50 to 200 yards give or take, I'll be sighting it in at 100-------thanks for your input---John
