[QUOTE="nicholasjohn, post: 1772681, member: 109113"] Coons, like feral cats, are VERY high strung. They take a lot of killing. If the 17 rimfires are a good stopper on coons, they probably have an application with this guy's situation. A big boar coon can be darn near the size of a small pit bull, and I'd be comfortable shooting a big coyote or wild dog with anything that I had taken out a big coon with. In fact, I thik that pound-for-pound, a coon is alot tougher to kill than a coyote. My biggest concern with shooting these troublesome vermine [I]in neighborhoods[/I] would be where the bullet goes after it exits the animal. This might favor the very frangible bullets in the 17-caliber cartridges. [/QUOTE]
