Best long range coyote caliber?
What caliber rifle (in the .22 area) would be the best for long range coyote hunting? .223, 22-250, .243? Something possible of 300 yards if not more and still knock them over?

I like my .220 swift,there are some problems in getting some ammo but its still readily available.I use to shoot hornaday before I reloaded ,so I just started reloading there 40gr vmax @ 4150-4200 fps.My rifle is a ruger m77 target. They dont chamber it any more but it is a great rifle to me after a little trigger work.

I built a 240Wby. on a 700 Rem. action, 26" P.O. Ackley bbl... It will flatten a coyote or wolf as far away as you can hit them...
All of your choises will workat 300 yards though...
