Well I have been lurking around for awhile and decided its time to register. So alittle about myself. I live in Kuna and I love to hunt Deer, Elk, birds you name it I want to try it. but I have never hunted coyotes but have always wanted to so its time to start. well I don't know how to call yet so I will start out with e-calls at first. but with every new hunting adventure you need equiptment to start and places to go. so that being said I didn't want to start out with a .270 so decided I needed a coyote gun. well that day is almost here ive been piecing this purpose yote gun together since Christmas time and now im just waiting for all the parts to arrive. I knew I wanted a .223 caliber rifle and it had to be semi cheap so here"s what I did. I started with a PSA complete lower with the CTR stock in FDE. then I added a standard charging handle and PSA premium bcg. I also went with a PSA stripped upper and a psa upper parts kit. now I needed a barrel and handguard so I got the Odin Works 18" DMR rifle length barrel with 1/8 twist and the Odin Works 15.5" keymod free float handguard. now I still haven't decided on optics but im a fan of vortex so it will most likely be a 1 piece scope base with a vortex 4x12 40 scope to round it out. I think I did ok with my first ever Ar-15. so then came ammo and I reload so I'm gonna start of with a load of Win brass and a 7 1/2 br primer with 26gr of Varget topped with a Hornady 50gr ZMax. most likely need to dial in the load but I think it will be a good starting place. Please comment on my build, optic options or load data that works for you.
Thanks Rodney B
