Which round is your favorite for varmint hunting and Coyotes. I know Coyotes can be killed with a number of larger rounds but say you want an all purpose round for both varmint and coyotes
A) 22 LR B) 17 HMR C) 22-250 D) 204 Ruger E) 223 F) Other - specify

If you want killem dead and that's it than a 17hmr.
If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

Also if anyone is looking to sell shoot me a PM. Probably not a good time to be looking for someone on here to sell their rifle but its worth a shot.

I'm gonna go with a 22-250. Why? Because I got one for my latest toy. Besides, 50-gr VMAX cruising at 4000 FPS is hard to beat. Check out the numbers on the Hornady box. 200-yd zero is only .7" high at 100 and only 4.3" low at 300.
