Look, I'm not an advocate for the .22 mag. I just think if you're not into hunting for big game and need a handy piece around to chase off varmints it is a nice gun. Most are reasonably priced, no kick back so you can shoot it alot and ammo is cheap so you can practice a lot with it. The other reason is when I went into the local sporting goods shop and asked what was the best for coyote protection that's what they recommended with little hesitation.
ETA: I came away with a Stevens 305 with a Tasco scope 3X -9X -40. Fairly light gun with composite stock but shoots well. Whole thing was around $300 (250 for the rifle and 60 for scope).
