Thanks guys. My brother stopped by and had seen the coyotes in his hay field as he was coming to my house. My shop is on a hill overlooking the field. I shot them out of the back door sitting on the floor with the rifle resting on my adjustable shooting seat. I shot the first one and they scattered, one stopped and looked at the one that was down so I shot it too. The third one had ran into the corn and came out so I put it down. After about thirty seconds the fourth one came back out of the corn where #3 had went down so I shot it too. It all took place in less than one minute. The first one lasered 240 and they got farther after that, the last two fell about three feet apart at 252 yards.
My rifle is a Savage FVSS in 22-250 with a Leupold 6.5-20 with a Varmint hunter reticle. The rifle is in a Stockade Elk Stalker ambi thumb hole stock, I shoot lefty. I reload for most of my rifles and was shooting a 55gr. Sierra Gameking over 36.0gr of varget. I have no idea how fast they are but they shoot small groups at 200 yards, where it's zeroed. I can shoot out to 500 yards in this field and three years ago I killed nine groundhogs that ranged between 416 yards to 470 yards and several more closer. I absolutely love this rifle, load and scope, after working out the load I spent some time learning hold overs with the reticle. Unless the wind is blowing pretty good it's pretty much point, click and death.
I don't claim to be a good shot but I am blessed to have a few rifles that will shoot.
