[QUOTE="roninflag, post: 465210, member: 5691"] RDM- I have shot over 250 coyotes. until last friday i had shot ONE over 400 yards. now i have shot two over 400 yards and i have the equipment needed to do it with some regularity ( i believe) . couple that with my competiton experience; the posters GOAL of coyotes over 500 was from my stand point a lofty one . with the right stuff he could come close. about a year ago i tried to help a teen with a coyote/coues rifle . he had already bagged elk deer and coyotes. and he reloaded . he did nothing i suggested. bought a rifle , shot a bunch never could get it to shoot. now he has a r77 257 , with 3.5-10 simmons. nice . not a 450 yard rifle in my opinion. and he has none of the pieces for working towards a long range rifle. my suggestion to bboook is to get an sps varmint in 243 , shoot it , learn to load for it ; and eventually get a stock and a barrel.
