Don't shoot coyotes with a 22.

The .22 is a very under estimated killing round even at 100 yards. Well placed bullets at 100 yards on coyotes and smaller get it done. I prefer the Bigger case smaller bullet from the HMR better but that's another thread. I still love the accurate little .22 RF round.
 
Great work. Fine examples of what surgical precision can do!
Yes sir especially over bait, no noise and dead coyotes, here's a hog killed with the 22 , this was a huge male #1 prime that went to a taxidermist, check the skull out where he got slammed.as well as another victim head shot. Shown also a most devastating subsonic round , very hard to come by but has never failed me.Ear shot 75 yards drt

I need to try to find a box or two of those to try. Apparently pretty accurate also?
I have a couple boxes of Eley Black box 22RF match ammo. Half the group size of anything else I shot. Expensive if you can find it. I saw some American name brand 22RF marked Match a couple years ago I never tried it. About 20 years ago I was helping a friend slaughter 2 pigs around 150-200 pounds. One shot with a 22RF between the eyes and they never moved an inch.

I have a anschutz match 54 which is sound moderated.i use Winchester 40grn subsonic bullets and it is super accurate.ive head shot lots of foxes with it at ridiculous ranges.loads of rabbits to.
 
FWIW, I’d not take that shot for fear of a non-humane shot (not against killing yotes, just against them suffering) BUT….. at my old house on a bayou that backed up to a couple hundred acres of woods south of Houston I almost always shot hogs with a 22… I wanted those foul creatures to run off into the woods to die… The yotes and buzzards have to eat too… :)
 
Try the CCI segmented rounds...both subsonic and Hi Speed. A real waker-upper! Amazing killing power for a 22
