I agree with Jim.
I'd say, though, that if you own a .222, then hunt with it. The coyotes you shoot will mostly be inside 250 yards, and the few that aren't might just topple over with a good hit.
Might you lose one or two? Sure. But you might lose a few with poor hits even if you carry a 7 Mag. So hunt with the gun you have.
Blaine Eddy is a professional fur hunter here, and he loves the deuce. Hard to say more than that.
Blaine? What are your thoughts?
