Went out to Jmad's over the weekend saturday night through monday come to think of it. Seen lots of coyotes. Missed more then I got, but thats usually the case isn't it?? However, I did manage to get 2 of them.
Shot this one sunday morning about 200 yards. He came out of a gravel pit and stopped broadside. 243 w/55g nbt at 3750fps put him out, DRT. Hit him behind the shoulder and it exited the offside shoulder about 1" hole. This was also my 100th coyote!!
Shot this one saturday night about 100 yards. He was trotting when I let him have a 55g NBT. Ruined his day as well, fur flew and he was DRT.
Last 4 coyotes I've killed with the 243/55g nbt combo, only 1 has exited. Most have left a pretty good size entrance hole, while throwing the fur, they've all been DRT though so far, so good...I am about to run out though and I will then be using some 58g vmax and some 55g BK's to try out on a few.
