Y’all talk me out of a 22-250

Nothing wrong with the 22-250. If a 25-06 is the "standard" for antelope or a 30-06 the "standard" for deer, then I'd say that's what the 22-250 is for coyotes- just absolute lights out. If you already reload multiple calibers, then there is nothing wrong with keeping a tried and true in your arsenal. Sounds like another Savage would be a great and economical choice.

the red targets were shot at 100yds using a .223ai with a factory trigger and a 6x docter scope with a heavy duplex. The black target was shot at 200yds using a 308win with a rifle basix trigger and 24x scope with a target dot.

The op has some idea of how many rounds he put through his .22-250, and how it shot when he decided to replace it. If he was happy with his barrel life, then he should go back with a .22-250 because it is the easiest route to duplicating that performance. It requires no fireforming and has readily available factory ammunition. A .223ai will give 50%-100% more barrel life depending on how the two are treated, what accuracy level is acceptable, throat length, lead angle, barrel maker, and how lucky he is with his particular barrel.

Unless you just want another caliber, the 22-250 is pretty hard to beat. Good factory ammo, accurate, low recoil and kills varmints real well. I don't hunt coyotes anymore, so my 250 is now a Creed, but for your intended purpose it is hard to argue with the 250.
