my altime favorite is a 243win loaded with 55gr ballistic tips they hit before you can blink an eye. as for a shotgun i use a 12ga pump with 3inch #4 buckshot or #2 they do a great job.

[Girdham]

.223 with 55 grain Remington during the day, 12 ga with 00 buck or #2 steel shot (looking forward to using them anyway)

 

[MGTEXAS]

.222 in the past but now I am trying the .243 Hornady 58 gr. I hope it will be my new favorite.

223 with a 55 gr. Sierra gameking hpbt

 

[IBGunner]

.223 with 55 grain Hornady V-Max. I most often use 12 gauge 00 Buckshot through a modified choke 835 Mossberg but I will use 3.5" T-Shot Dead Coyote rounds through an Extra Full Choke if I anticipate ranges will be unusually long. But I really have my best luck with 00 Buckshot inside of 35 yards where most of my coyotes are taken.

well not that i know on predators but i use 55gr 223 for my ar, havent felt the need for anything else

 

[badger]

So far it's .223 with 55 grains. Still casting about though...

 

[Goofycat]

I like the AR, but feel it would be better in a .243, not a .223 for coyotes.

 

[PredatorFreak]

22-250 with 40 gr. V-Max does a hella good job. 50 gr. noslers too.

 

[Tka250]

22-250 with 50 gr vmax.
I recently bought some winchester silver tips and they shot about 2 inches lower than the Hornady. i also bought some 45 gr white box winchesters and they placed almost identical to the 50 gr silver tips. This is all at 100 yards. The only reason I bought those is it has been impossible to find the Hornady. Last year they were everywhere.

Hey Fellows, I'm looking at a T C Icon, Precision in the 5.6 cal. I'm trying get a happy medium for varmint and deer. I need some input ! I've researched the round and it seems to be a flat shooting round with a some what punch to it, or is bigger not better ? I'm also looking at the 22-250 round but I feel that it is a little to small for deer.

 

[bar-d]

The 5.6 caliber? Do you mean 5.56?
