Best Possible Caliber

[Duffy]

Good afternoon. I am new to this site, having visited it as a guest periodically, and look forward to corresponding with you, sharing ideas and information, and just enjoying the site and all it has to offer.

Question: What are your thoughts as to the best all-around caliber for woodchuck and the occasional coyote? I suppose distance and accuracy are important, as is knock-down power, but nothing too overwhelming. I hunt whitetails in Pennsylvania, but I'd think my .30-30 or .30/06 are too much firepower, but my shotguns for squirrel and rabbit not enough. I'd appreciate your input.

Thanks!
