My favorite coyote rifle is a Remington 700 Varmint Special chambered in .22-250. It is accurate and dependable, but it is also long and heavy. And as a bolt action, it’s not as practical when a pack of coyotes respond to my calls.
Except for certain applications, it stays in my gun safe when I head out calling. In most cases, my rifle of choice is an AR-15. It, too, is dependable, adaptable, adjustable, almost rust proof with its stainless barrel, amazingly accurate, semi-automatic, and – if set up carefully – tends to be lighter and more compact than the Remington Model 700.
