[LOC1]

A Remington 700 in .243 caliber with a Leopold 4X9 Goldring scope works well on animals up to about 150 pounds, except for hogs.

Also, consider joining a county Wildlife and Livestock Protection Association. The one we have joined in West Texas charges a fee based on acreage. They provide hunters / trappers who control varmints across the county. We do not even hear coyotes anymore.
