USMC Coyote Brown is technically known as Coyote Brown 498 (commonly seen on Eagle CB products).

USSOCOM Coyote Brown is Coyote Brown 499, and is slightly different (common on AITES CB products)

SDS has some CB which is pretty close to CB498/499, while other products are closer to tan or other weird brown-ish colors.

BHI Coyote Tan, old Phantom Coyote Tan/Coyote Brown, a lot of repro "Coyote Tan" (ebay), Maxpedition Khaki... is basically all Khaki and within a few shades of each other.

I've seen newer PANTAC stuff which was really close to CB498.

Color variations (and even throwing in the occasional woodland pouch) does seem to help general shape breakup, so I wouldn't go too far out of my way to get all perfectly matching components.
