What's the best short-range coyote gun for a semi-rural area? By that I mean that I want something not too much louder than a .22 LR but with enough power for a clean kill at about 100 yards or so on a coyote, fisher, or fox.
I have a couple of .223's and they would surely do the job but they're loud as hell at 5:30 a.m.
I'm thinking of perhaps a .22 hornet or .22 WMR. The .17 has crossed my mind but I'm a little leery of the bullet weight.
I'd appreciate any thoughts you fur hunters might have.
