Now that I’m getting into predator hunting, was thinking about buying a specific gun for it. I’m kinda already set on a .204. What are your guys thoughts on best all around guns for coyotes and foxes?

I shoot 40 gr bullets from my .223, best performing bullet weight should be determined by number of twists in barrel

I think it may be a little more complicated than that. Just some aspects such as the trajectory coefficient of that particular bullet design, the velocity of the particular projectile at a given distance, the knock down power of that particular projectile at a given distance, and more subjectively how the particular cartridge from a manufacturer fires from your particular firearm (even the same ammo may fire slightly differently in another gun of the same make and model.

Sk8man is correct - all cartridges are not created equal. Certain guns shoot certain cartridges better.  Sure it takes extra time & money to figure it out, but once you find it's favorite load, you'll be at that weapon's peak performance curve.

Still running, nobody home when he was out.

I missed one Saturday night around 2am, still feeling sorry for myself.

No reasonable excuse, I suck!!

Next time!!
