Sumo,

Along with my Remington 700CDL in .257 Weatherby, I hunt with a Remington R-25 in .243 win (It's a re-branded DPMS). It's a PERFECT Coyote gun. With the 58 Gr. Hornady V-Max bullets, it knocks coyotes down with authority. Fast, flat and quick follow-up shots and little recoil. The only downside I can see is the weight. Although, the weight makes watching the "splash" and hits easier because it reduces felt recoil.
