Anyone built a ridiculous rig for long range coyotes?

In all honesty had a few beers at the weigh in for a calling contest and I got it in my head that having a 1200 yard setup would have paid for itself this year so humor me.... let's talk stupid long range coyote rigs, wanting something for calling contests. Let's get some dream builds going.

Where I hunt, 500 yds is the max I ever see and depending on the stand, it's more like 50 but I'm slowly putting together a Mark V .257 Weatherby Mag Build that'll shoot 85 grain Nosler BT Varmints. Targeting 3700 FPS with a max point blank zero should put me at 1 mil high at 100 and .9 low at 500. Should be a nice point and click rifle out as far as I can find to shoot.

This is what I would use. Mainly because I already am using the rifles and projectiles and am comfortable shooting at those kind of ranges. I think there are many ways to skin the cat here. You need a bullet that will buck the wind well.
1. 300 WM using a 215 Hyb.
2. 7mm PRC or rem mag pushing a 168+ projectile

Are these overkill for a Yote? Absolutely. More forgiving in the wind though.

Definitely looking for overkill, wanting .600+ bc and over 3000 fps ideally.

I couldn't tell you. I left him for the eagles. Did 3 circles ran about 20 yards and done.

I'm shooting the 109 taps.
Long walk for a 2 dollar hide 🤣 normally we do the same but they get expensive if you can't grab em in a derby

I Had one big red one Saturday that I missed the wind on by about 3" @ 850. I may have grabbed that one.....beyond that, I just feed the calf hazers to the eagles.

I wouldn't consider my 300 since I built the xc. This is a very accurate, easy to shoot rig that makes you look like a pro if you can call the wind.

I’ll pretty much use whatever I have on hand to shoot at coyotes haha. A 6 Creed will reach out there for sure.
