[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1131540, member: 4191"] Yeah, that sorry *** thing looks like it was pulled out of a dumpster! Or a garbage grinder. :D Good enough for racoon inside a trash can... maybe! :) When I last lived there in the fall/winter 77-78, I used to use a .222 Rem for red fox at night, even though it wasn't legal (statute of limitations long ago expired on my crime). The .222 Rem was pretty tough on hides - too much velocity for a frail bodied red fox - no matter which bullets I tried. And I tried everything from HP to FMJ. A coyote has a lot more mass, so I think there would be much less exit side damage with a .222 / .223 class catridge. But this thread is about .22 WMR... We used .22 WMR on a lot of fox also, both daytime and night time, and it was plenty of power on red fox with any type of solid body hit. A HUGE difference in KO factor compared to a standard 40gr .22 LR. [/QUOTE]
