well ive been shooting ground squirrels for about 5 years now. I love shooting small critters from a long way away, but ive been wanting to see if i could call in a coyote and take it.
I recently bought a closed reed hand blown caller. I sat and called for about a half hour, then moved about a half mile down, made two calls in about 10 minutes and there he was. He came in and stopped at 208 yards out. He saw me before i saw him but i kept him interested with a couple quiet calls, then WHAP! The 22-250 dropped him cold.
I wanted him so bad, i was shaking like a leaf! I wasn't nervous like that when i shot my first cow elk!
My rifle is a rem 700 stainless varmint, with a stock similar to the XR100 stock. 22-250 loaded with home moly'd nosler 55gr BTs. It used to have a jewell trigger but i swapped it to my new 6br, now its got the stock trigger, self adjusted to a 2.5lb pull.
