Coyotes terminal ballistics

[muleman]

I'm looking for a new bullet (.224) which will punch an entrance hole with no exit. I'm presently useing 55 Gr SXSP which work quit well in reduceing fur damage. I'd like to find something a little heavier, say 60-70 gr, with a better BC for distance, but still highly explosive on impact. Any opinions on 60gr V-MAX, 68gr BTHP, or will these be to heavy and blow right through?

What about the 60gr Nosler Ballistic Tip Varmint bullets? .27 BC

The 60gr v-max has been one of the most accurate bullets in my rifles, and have only had one exit a coyote.
