was wondering how good a .22 will work.
Not very good at all. Yes a skull shot would kill if placed well but you aren't going to get that close to the yote to make that shot count. Your off by a bit and catch the jaw, snout then what? I would suggest get a better cal like a 22-250, 222, .17 rem etc and go for the body. Usaully yotes are longer shots these calibers will reach out there and touch em good.
