I use many different rifles in many different calibers. My recommendation for those looking to buy their first coyote rifle is a Rem 700 in 223. Ammo is cheap if you don’t handload, brass is easy to come by, there are more parts for the 700 than any other rifle, and it will kill coyotes as dead as any other caliber. Once you get into coyote hunting you find a more taylored setup/caliber for your situation.
