Your bullet of choice in .204 for coyote?

A good friend of mine just picked up a tikka Varmite in .204.. we realoaded up some different rounds one afternoon and tryed them.. The best powder that rifle liked was Alliant RL10X punched 5 shot clover leafs at 100 yards with 39gr Sierra Blitzkings. Forget the grains of powder and couldnt begin to tell u velocity... As for .204 on Coyotes...... Our group shoots over 100 every winter running them with dogs... I have seen all coyotes fall on the spot to the .204 with any pill at any REASONABLE (350max) range.. it dont seem to matter... There just dead. Put the bullet anywhere behind the shoulder and they fall dead.. what is funny is pelt damage with the .204 and 40gr pills seems to do alot more damage then my 22-250 with 40gr pills...
