For here in So. Il we are rather closely populated so I lean towards the hotter 22's, 220 Swift and 22-250, with 50-55grn Ballistic Tips for non-ricocheting shots. Really opens up in 'yote!!!! I drive them in the 3800-3900fps range and they really shoot well and are VERY 'yote unfriendly!!! I don't collect pelts so I don't care what kind of damage they do.
