were not talking inches....were talking feet! Whats the word I can't think of it? One step above Red mist.

[gyesko]

You mean "red eruption"?

[coyotewallace]

Oh, yea! One might say chunks....

I know what you're saying... I love the "red chunks"! I've shot a couple dozen coyotes with that bullet... I love the way they leave dog clockwork for about 30' sprayed randomly about the ground. Fur Friendly?... Ahhh, NO. But what's a pelt worth these days? I can tell you it ain't worth my time... that's for sure.

I have been shooting the 100 grain Nosler B-Tip a lot lately. The velocity and ballistics are identical out to 600 yds, I haven't had to change my turret from the TSX load (that's the furthest I've shot it). Terminal performance is about the same, maybe even a little more messy... and I bought 100 of the "seconds" for $16 (that's about 1/4 the cost of the TSX). I shot one coyote about a week ago right in the face at 150 yds... one of his ears and a large chunk of skull landed about 45 feet away in right into Crab Creek!! ~JT

Oh man thats good reading. I'll be back on the 12th of june and then heading over to the east side for about 3 weeks so lets go shoot a few then.

I didn't know the TSX's opened up that hard.
Man that's some serious terminal effect.

I got a shot on a big male in a hayfield w/ my 25-06 and 100gr nos bt --> very humane let me tell you.
Good luck w/the coyote reduction hunt ! -Mike

ps- i usually wait until labor day to start shooting but spoke w/ some people who said please start asap.
