[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2797427, member: 26077"] We used to shoot yotes with 147 grain FMJ boat tails pulled from 7.62 Nato surplus ammo and loaded into 300 Win Mags. We did that so we could shoot them out to the half mile line. It also meant we still would have good pelts no matter how close they were. If you hit them too far back you did have some tracking to do, but we always shot them with snow on the ground so you did eventually catch up to them. The other cartridge we used a lot was the 22-250 with 40 grain Vmax and 55 grain SPSX. These were very explosive bullets that rarely exited, if they did however no amount of sewing would fix the exit hole. Even hit with one of those, if you gut shot the yote, it would still go quite a ways and they were much harder to track because there was no exit hole. My bet is the buzzards will locate the carcass for you in no more than a day. [/QUOTE]
