I would recommend a AR-15. At the range you shoot at it would be great for fast follow up shots. And you still have great accuracy. I shot some 1 1/2" groups at 275 yards with mine last weekend. That was with handloads and match bullets though. I have used cheap ammo at close range and they drop the coyotes very well. I just got a 220 swift I have not taken it hunting yet. Anyone else reload for the swift. So far I have gotten 1" groups at 275 yards with 40gr Vmax at 4200fps.
