I'm looking for a new caliber that shoots flatter than my .223 and packs more of a punch past 300 yards. Will be used for coyotes. I enter coyote calling tournaments quite a bit and although I feel confident in shooting out to 300 with my .223 the chances of killing one stone dead past that goes down quite a bit. I want something with manageable recoil so I can get on a second coyote if need be. Most shots will be fairly close but it's the doubles and triples or more that I'll have to worry about. If I shoot one and another one stops at 500 yards I want to be able to dump it without having to just shoot and hope I hit it. I'd like to take alot of guess work out of it I guess is what I'm saying.
I'm leaning towards a 22-250,.243 or a 25-06. I'm not recoil sensitive so something that doesn't kick bad isn't a must but when more than one comes in and after the first shot is fired I'll need to get on em pretty quick so it would be good if I could find something that doesn't jump too much.
