[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 247078, member: 340"] From my 223 AR15, I actually shoot the exact same 50gr Fiocchi polymer tip. I've had good luck with them. I don't recall any getting away, but they will run a bit. I mainly use my 223 on prairie dogs, and that 50 gr Fiocchi splatters them nicely. IMO, you may not find anything that "anchors" Coyotes out of a 223 in a short-ish barreled AR. There's just not enough velocity or mass there, and you need one or the other, or preferably both. I shoot the 53 v-max out of my 22-250, and that is a "dead-right-there" round at ~3900 FPS, and creates spectacular carnage on p-dogs, but that's a 24" barreled bolt gun, and not particularly handy. My go-to for coyotes is my AR10 in 6mm Creedmoor. The 87gr vmax at ~3150 drops them in their tracks every time, and is good enough in the wind to be a hammer out past 600 yards. If you want a true never-fail coyote "anchor", you may have to carry more gun. [/QUOTE]
