.223 or .22mag works well.

Deerslayer I have tried Nosler, Sierra and Hornady 55gr, they are super accurate but they leave big holes. I am trying 60gr hollow points next.

Use a slow expanding bullet, or even an FMJ if its legal in your area. .243 is a great coyote caliber, really does a number on them. you can always sew up a whole if its THAT bad, but i highly doubt its gonna punch a huge hole.
