Yeah, that'd be about as far as you'd want to shoot a coyote with a 22 mag. The bullet is still moving plenty quick, it just loses its speed quickly because of how light the bullet is. If you plan on shooting 'yotes at or beyond 200yds I'd step up to a .223 or a 6mm (oh yeah[;)]). Otherwise you'll be chasing a lot of wounded ones. 22-250 wouldn't be a bad choice either.

PS: the reason I was asking what you're shooting at is because you were concerned about the bullet "bouncing back". The 22 bullet isn't going to bounce/ricochet unless you shoot something hard like a steel plate, water, or rocks.

I also think 200yds is a little far for yotes with the 22mag. You will burn them pretty good but I would suggest a 243.
Don't run, you will only die tired.0 -

You mis-read that, you need a 6mm not a .243[;)]
