PGW Coyote feedback

I have not owned a Cadex but have shot one...very nice rifle. I have owned PGW Coyote/Timberwolf in both the A5 and Chassis configurations.
To your concern on the 1:10 twist in the Coyote...mine shot everything from the 168-190 range all very well. My go to load was a 178 A-Max that would put them on top of one another at short range....no special COL either, just standard 2.800”. Not a fussy rifle at all.....actually custom builds considered, my next big purchase will be another Coyote.

Reviving this thread.

Anyone have both the PGW Coyote and the Cadex Guardian for a comparison?

I'm eventually considering a 308 Coyote with their folding chassis. The only thing I don't like about the Coyote in 308 is the 1:10 twist rate. I prefer 1:11.25. My match ammo is in the 167 to 178 range. With my go to round being a 175 SMK. I have no intentions of shooting 180-220.

With regards to chassis vs mcmillan stock. I don't have a PGW to compare. However I do have a few rifles in both Chassis and Mcmillian stocks. I am a fan of the Mcmilian. It's a fantastic stock. But... while the Chassis system doesn't give the owner as much of a warm fuzzy feeling, it is more efficient. The folding option for travel, cleaning and bore sighting is nice. It's a giant aluminum bedding block. No change at all due to temperatures etc. Easy to add anything to it, including ARCA rails for tripods, bipods etc. It's more modular. Technically it is superior. However you can end up adding more weight very easily along with it just not being as comfortable in many cases. It's hard aluminum vs fibre glass. On a purely technical and convenience aspect, chassis for me.

I haven't yet own one PGW rifle, but have shoot several round on it, and I can tell you that their product are top Knots when compare to other Gun manufacture like Tikka, Sako, Accuracy, Remington , I sure wish that I did buy several rifle from them.
 
My coyote in 308 keyholes everything inside 200m. I have to stretch out to 300, 600 to see a group. On a good day it's 1/4 moa on a bad 1/2 moa. I don't think it's the rifle's fault on bad days.

Huh? You mean to say your bullet tumbles inside 200m and then "settles" after that? Sorry, I just don't get that. What in heaven's name are you shooting?

No, they all go through the same hole. I see how that was misleading. My uncle always talked about putting rounds through a keyhole, switch a language and get lost in translation. Perhaps saying any three to five rounds will make a single perforation in the target?
 
They are nice rifles, have handled a few of them. Love the look of their signature spiral fluted barrel (and this is coming from someone who generally isn't a barrel flute fan).

I wouldn't take one over a custom rifle spec'ed the way I wanted, but if I was looking for a higher end "factory" rifle, I would put it right up there with an AI and would give it strong consideration.
 
If one day I sell all my rifles and handguns I WILL NEVER SELL MY COYOTE AND TIMBERWOLF ,




I would go with Coyote with no time ,

Price :
if you compare extremely precision rifles with Coyote like TacOps Tango 51 10k$ , Accuracy International 9k$ , M2010 Rem 14k$ or any type of custom build is way more cost than Coyote ,

Shape:
One of the most ###ist rifle ever , so pretty specially on FDE no matter A5 McMillan stock or PGW chassis folding , I have both and I love both , advantage of chassis is easy to carry , the barrel , action and muzzle brake is unique signature Canadian design, the maple leaf stamp made this art even more beautiful .

Accuracy :
A .50 MOA or less rifle accuracy with factory ammo right out of the box is extremely rare.

Can I order a PGW coyote in a JAE chassis chambered in 6BRA? What if I wanted a CRF or 3 lug action? None of those options are available.

You're limited to one stock or one chassis choice. Limited to one action. Limited to their select reamers. Yes you have options, but it's not a true custom gun. A true custom gun I would be able to spec it out essentially ANY way I want.

That's the beauty about a PGW coyote, they are excellent guns built on a good in house built action with some select options. You get a good rifle that the CF and other .gov forces use.

Factory doesn't always mean bad with a rifle. Like I said above, PGW, AI, DTA, Cadex, etc all make killer factory rifles. But you are limited in your options when you go with one.
 
You'll see PGW rifles on the podium at competitions all over. You will never see a custom on the battlefield.

Kthomas, call in with your credit card, we'll build whatever you want. Which CRF action would you like to use?
