Coyote in the ear at 200 yards.

My preferred shot(200 yards and in) in the winter, stalking bedded coyote during the day. Nosler 55 gr BT out of my 22-250, or 29 gr WCD out of my 17 rem stay inside the skull every time. No sewing.

I hear you but on this I had a clean pass through ,scenarios change frequently, and 200 yards and in is a hole in one ,in the 7 states I've killed coyotes 200 yards is entirely doable, sure some coyotes will be out of range but there's always next time.
 
This was a few years ago. Running toward my stand while I was deer hunting. He took one in the head. First pic is the entry side.
Second is, well, you know.

For the 6mm-PPC use N133 and a bullet weighing in the neighborhood of 65 grains. I like Bergers if I want to shoot out the iris in the eye at 200 yards~!

I did it at 200 with a 17 hornet not really that hard with decent equipment and practice.

And my .221 Remington Fireball says “hold my beer”. Got this one through the ear at a lasered 247 yards, moving at a trot. Figured a body shot at that range might let it slip into the dense woods a few yards away, so it was all or nothing. Cooper M38 Phoenix, 40 gr. Nosler BT.

My luckiest shot was a crossing shot on a coyote. Full out, 300 yds, First shot from my Sako .17 Remington put him into cartwheels. When I got to him, I found one drop of blood in his left ear.
