I think i will like it... i've never even shot a 17 but it seemed like a decent deal and for coyotes i hope it does just fine..

just remember that the 17 is a small caliber, & fouls very quickly, for good accuracy, you must clean the bore after a couple of groups

I have this exact gun. I love it. It does great on coyotes just shoot em in the head. Ive shot beavers with it too, works great. Mine doesn't like the 20gr hp's, I shoot the 17gr polymer tipped bullets. The only thing I dont care for is the mag and mag catch.
