Hi can anyone help me with information as to wether or not theirs a light weight round in 25-06 that I can use for coyotes. The lightest round that I have been able to find is a 85gr psp. I no longer reload gave it up years ago and can't afford to buy all the equipment again. I'm rather new at this although I did some predator hunting some years back as I explained in my post yesterday introducing myself as a new member in the equipment forum. I'm going to have to use my 25-06 to get started and any help and or suggestions would be greatly apperciated. Please give me your opinions on my using this caliber for Coyotes. Thanks for any help and all suggestions. Ken

I use 130 sps out of my 270 some times. works great try not to hit the shoulder. lung and heart shots will have only a small exit well much smaller if you hit bone. use what you have ;) 223,222 ,17rem, 22-250,204.ect :D you can make any thing work.
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.
