What caliber and brand of gun do all you coyote hunters use?

Remington M7 in 17rem with Berger 25gr. Target HP's at 3500fps was what I used on my last coyote. Working on getting a 17rem AR together and running for future kills.

Savage 11 predator in 243 has really grown on me, it's got a vortex 4-12 on top but yet to get a dog with it.

I had a 20" hbar ar I built with a collapsing stock and a Vortex 3-9-40 with V-brite reticle and really regret selling that one, shooting 50gr vmaxes I had a lot of luck and it was my go to for sure. Near perfect all around rifle and I loved the Vbrite reticle
 
Springfield 840 .222 Wearing a Denver Redfield 3-9 or the Springfield 840 30-30 shooting 110 Hornady and wearing an El Passo Weaver 2-7V. Not pricey rigs, but effective.
 
In the thick stuff, which is most of the time, a Mossberg 930 with a red dot. In crappy wet weather my Ruger Red Label. When in more open hardwoods my Sako 222 with a 2x7 Leupold. When just out exploring new areas, my Marlin 1894 357, again with a red dot. Sometimes just grab a deer rifle for a change.I'm waiting for Krieghoff to get the bugs out of the 222 insert in my Drilling, that will be my go to I think.
 
Remington 700 220 Swift, and a Benelli Nova. And when I take someone out and wanna just sit back with the call, I will carry in my Savage 22 Hornet, for them sneaky down wind ones that need a special little head poke.
 
Browning 12 gauge with Dead Coyote Choke, Ruger PCC (fun to shoot) and CZ 527 in 223 with Weaver K-6. Would like to get good enough to use a 45 :)
 
Nice yote ARCOREY. Love the Model 7s. Thinking about picking another one up in either 223 or 22-250 for my night hunting activities.
 
Semi custom remington 700 chambered in 20 tactical pushing the 39gr blitzkings at 3800fps. Just picked up a 35gr Berger’s to try in it. Hoping for 3850-4000fps. Also use a custom 260 rem pushing the 140hvld’s, have a full custom 6mm creed on its way from the smith for those longer pokes.

Thanks! I too love the M7’s. I have the 17rem and 7mm08. Both stock tack drivers with tuned factory triggers. I didn’t realize how rare the little 17 was until I started looking around for another.
 
.223 savage mod 16 lightweight stainless in a Boyd’s classic topped with vortex hs 2.5-10x44
.204R browning a bolt medallion topped with leupy vx3i 3.5-10x40

Those are my main coyote rifles. I haven’t night hunted before but am dying to get into it. What do y’all think of sniper hawg lights?
 
Here in Iowa we can’t use lights at night so I just purchased a thermal scope. I’m dying to get out but the weather is going to be terrible this weekend.
 
My "coyote" guns are my Tikka T3SL in 223...
