I can name a couple of experienced hunters who are big fans of the Hornady V-Max and Nosler Ballistic Tip for coyote hunting with 5.56. One is a local guide who swears by the V-Max for its accuracy and expansion, especially at those longer distances.
Another is a competitive shooter who uses the Nosler Ballistic Tip, praising its effectiveness in both precision and terminal performance on coyotes. Have you had a chance to try either of those rounds yet
