| Ok so just got word me and my dad might be able to do some coyote hunting here soon. I wanted to take the trusty AR out.. now will the regular USMC or WOLF ammo work or what do I need to use? I have never been coyote hunting and was wondering what is effective to down one with |
| You don't really want to use FMJ ammo for any hunting, you want something like a softpoint or hollowpoint that will expand and put them down. I have killed coyotes with everything from .22 to 9mm, .223 to 12ga, and as long as you use a good round designed for killing, it'll work. |
+1 Rizzo is keen hunting yotes.He's my mentor. |
| I use 50grn Barnes Varmint Grenades in a handload and they work very well or i will use 55grn winchester ballistic silvertips.both are very good. You can get the Varmint grenades factory loaded in 36 or 50 grain from black hills. Midway and Natchez usually stocks them. |
