Greetings.

Am taking my first steps into LR target work with a 6.5 Creedmoor. Zeiss S3 4x24x50 MIL scope. MIL is totally new to me. Looking forward to learning.

The rifle has 2 equal purposes - target and Coyote hunting.

I'm reasonably confident with my early purchases of target bullets - the 143 ELD X and Sierra 140 TMK.

New to the 6.5 - I'm not sure about the 90 to 120 gr for Coyotes. To better manage the wind at longer ranges I purchased some Sierra 130 gr TMK's. Had very good experience with 165 TMK in my .308 on Deer. Thought the 130 might be a good start for LR Coyote?

Any thoughts you wish to share on a Coyote bullet for this rifle would be appreciated.

Cheers.
