i live in sw idaho and could give you some ideas of areas. coyote hunting isn't much different that turkey hunting. need camo, must set up in good areas and find " hot " game. there are various calls you can use. you can use a 5 dollar mouth call all the way up to a 700 dollar electric call with subwoofers midrange speakers ect.. the basic concept is to set-up hopefully on the outskirts of agriculture, or wintering range on blm land ect. hide and call emulating a wounded animal. howling is effective for locating them as well. hide with a vantage point of close to 360 degrees as possible. if you are hunting in a snowy area look for coyote, mouse, rabbit tracks this will go a long way in finding a good spot. as for cartridges, anything will work. it is great practice with your deer-elk rifle. however most prefer .204 ruger and on up to .243 win with varmit bullets. however calling them in close and using a shotgun or revolver is intertaining as well. hope this helps some and good luck !
