Ken and I went out on a coyote hunt this weekend in Prinevill. It was a great time, we saw 8 dogs and I got shots off at 2 of them, hit one. Christmas vally was thick with them.
Ken will post pics soon. I hit This one with my DPMS sweet 16 shooting Federal 55gr TNT tips at about 325 yards across a vally calling them in. The other one I missed was about 200 out and I overshot him. Good times.

Irons, just kidding. It was a Weaver V24 6to 24 power. I think next time I am going with a lupy 3X9, there isnt really a need for the 24 power when the furtherest dog I saw was under 500.

Right on! That is a kick in the rear, coyotes are a blast to call in.
Curious, what did you use for calls? Mouth or electronic? Decoy? Like the tape job on the AR too!

Nope no range finder just ken eyes. That guy could spot used bubble gum on the floor of a chicken coupe.
I sighted in 5" high at 100yards and figured it would drop back in between 325 and 350. I held dead on and 2" left for wind and it hit dead on center of the chest. When I shot at the one at 200 I put it right on the nose and overshot him by a few inches, or he ducked at the last second.

It was about 15 miles west south west of christmas vally on I think it was called Flat Rock.
The dogs were thick around the town, we saw 3 just crusing around town killing time. |

Fort Rock And I'll tell ya this, don't ever make the mistake of stopping and asking a farmer or rancher if you can shoot one of the yotes in his yard/pasture/pivot line. The like them alot over there, they eat the squeakers and bunnies that eat all the alfalfa!You need to go back in a few weeks though and shoot the sage rats, that is a kick in the rear! |
