Not intentionally. But if one crosses my path while I'm carrying the WinMag, coyote+180SGK=dead coyote.
Does anyone hunt yotes with a win mag? If so what kind of loads

I did once also not planned, there was a half dozen or so of them circling a newborn calf in the field, and we were on the second floor of the barn where the hay is stored, I was giving him a hand and then we were going to go shooting, actually my buddy took the shot with my rig, the shot went through one and into the hip of the one right behind it, it was at least a 400 yard shot, the load was a 130gr Sierra HP with 76gr of Varget, it's my varmint load and is good for 4000FPS, if you have never seen these 130 HP's the hollow points, the hole is so big it looks like someone drilled them out, and they make a distinctively loud howl when they are traveling at a high rate of speed,

RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.
Are there any good varmint bullets in the 125-150 grain range
They're all good varmint bullets.
If you're looking for minimal pelt damage with a 300 WinMag, pulled FMJ's are probably the best route to take.

Dont care about pelt damage
Then any bullet will work for you. Use your regular hunting load, it's good practice, and gives you more trigger time than that one shot each hunting season it usually takes to fill a tag. I've shot coyotes with a 30/30 Winchester when I was younger using 150gr FP's and it was every bit as fun as my 243AI at 3900fps. They were all just as dead when all was said and done.

No use in throwing your shoulder out, Hornady Sierra and Speer, all make 110gr in 30 cal, I use them all the time, combined with industrial amounts of Varget. 78gr to be exact.
