Greetings.

Just following up on my early December long, unsuccessful story, .270 Win 110 gr bullet for Coyote. This rifle will shoot sub MOA with 130 gr and up so it’s not the rifle. Yeah, I know I can use the 130 gr for Coyote – makes for good Deer practice – but wanted to try a lighter bullet.

Yeah…you’re right…I should have stayed with my .243 W for the upcoming Wiley hunt.

It's a T3x – 22.4” – 1:8 twist. Have considerable “range” but no hunting experience with this particular rifle and an assortment of bullets. .5 MOA and better have been common. Current goal being max accuracy on Coyote out to 500 yards – have narrowed it down to 2 bullets. 87 gr V Max or Sierra 85 gr BTHP. Both have outstanding reps. Will likely use one of the 4350’s.

I apologize, this being my second posting about this rifle. If you wouldn’t mind commenting on which of these 2 bullets you prefer and why, you’ll have my attention and appreciation. Headed to the range tomorrow to test which is most accurate.

Thank you kindly.

Happy Holidays.
