Twenty-two carnage.

Yesterday I took this huge male. My size 14 shoe gives an idea of his length. He was gorging on food, heading back to a den somewhere nearby. Look at the stomach, huge,at 100 yards I drew down with my integrally suppressed Ruger 77/22 loaded with Winchester 42 Max subsonic hollow points,I shot for the left eye socket and was a hair off the bullet hit just above,I marked the entrance with a stick for a reference point. The round exited exactly between his eyes, and you'll see. Do not attempt this shot unless you can hit a golf ball dead center at 100 yards every time, or at least 99% of.I've made hundreds of these over the years; the result is the same old same old.DRT.Please no comments about the ethics of shooting coyotes with a 22,I'm a highly trained expert who must make my shots count. Anyone can do likewise with dedication and practice.

Not really just statements of fact,I put lots of time and effort in my coyote eradication program. anyone with the desire and interest can do the same.
We can only dream......
I was thinking... I suggest you put your highly trained skills to work and take some world records away from the shirkers on this site. Most of us can't hit the center of a golf ball at 100 yards 99% of the time with a Ruger .22 rimfire. You underestimate yourself.

Not advisable, three presidential commendations, and a bodyguard for a third,however, I won't mention his name. Trump and Bush Junior are two.Metro SWAT trained. Anyone can do it.
Curious since you don’t see too many integral 77’s over the 10/22’s these days. Who made yours? I have played with one that literally put rounds between the crosshairs every time. My buddy has a non suppressed Bergara that is the same at 50-75 yards. Haven’t had a chance to stretch it out to 100 yet as he shoots indoors.
 
100's of kills with a 22 l.r. ?? You doing way better than guys shooting centerfires. LOL Didn't know 30 acres could hold that many coyotes.. where do you live if I may ask??

AWC systems in Arizona.

I live within a 1000-acre nature preserve that is not accessible to the public. A major river system dissects the property,rivers funnel game of all sorts that follow it, and add my thousands of acres that I hunt groundhogs on, making for lots of yote shooting spots. My area usually produces 100 a year, without me leaving. Coyotes are thick in Ohio, including the heavily populated cities. Not a remarkable feat compared to the men on here who hunt out west.Dropped another last night on the baitpile, pictures later, work beckons.

Being generous, 30 sounds about right.

1000 acres just little more than square mile. Coyotes terr. usually consists of five square miles with one family group living there which would put it at 8 roughly for total. Give or take a few if terr. lines are not enforced so toss in a handful of extras. hardly a 100 a year.
Shooting over bait only good for so long they smarten up to it except YOY, a few of them be dumb enough to try feed on it. Shooting over bait is nonproductive if you looking to kill large numbers, just way it is.
Also just say the female has a 8 pup litter, many times only a handful make it to a year of age. and come late winter males move off to find their own female, so now heard just got smaller.
Lots of callers out these days and night and as for private reserve if there are a good number of coyotes their others will know about it as well and just call the fridges. E-caller can bring coyotes in from over a mile. Fact. You maybe know something about wind flags but know very little about coyotes and how they live or survive..
JUST SAYING!!!!!!!!!

The only Ruger rifles that I feel I got my money's worth accuracy wise was the 10/22. That's some good shooting, kill'em all and their spawn.

Don't make me laugh. What point are you trying to make? Sir I forgot way more than you'll ever hope to know, having eradicated 1000 give or take, those numbers don't fall in the novice league, just say what's really on your mind.As for baiting, it works 24/7, especially in the winter and denning season. Just that comment tells me all I need to know, amateur hour, stay off Google they know little about hunting coyotes.
 
I don't use Google, nice try. Yeah, you did forget a lot like actual numbers. LOL Baiting only works if they know it's there and want to come to it.
Its pretty common on Net for others to pad their numbers, just subtract about 80% which put anyone close to what actual are. Have nice day..

I see a lot of misinformation here. I'm flagging this as amateur hour at your best. Let's see your numbers. So, if I see a dozen coyotes in a square block, is that all there is in a square mile?LOL, get real, dude. Your calculations may work out west, but in the populated east, you've got them seriously askew. I hope those trying to learn something here avoid you like the plague.
