I wouldn't go coyote calling with my .17 HMR, just because I know the 22-250 or 12 gauge will do a MUCH better job, but if it were the only gun in the rack, why not? Coyotes are NOT easy to put down for good - - a great many WILL get up and run off after doing the boogie dance if shot with something as light as a 17 HMR. On the other hand, kajillions have been killed with just about anything you can think of, so........? In my mind, if you're going to go to all that trouble and expense to go, why not take along a serious coyote rifle?
