[QUOTE="Reemty J, post: 1959746, member: 113694"] I used to shoot a heavy barreled (was great for running shots, smooth follow thru) Remington 22-250 and it liked 50 grain V-Max bullets over 40 grains H-380 was at 3750-3775 fps. When the opportunity presented itself, and the coyote was broadside and I had them ranged, I would gladly pop one at 500, bullet dropped 3' at that range. Going by poor memory I know I have killed 4-5 at 500 with that combo and I will darn well do it now with my .204 shooting a 39 grain SBK. At 500 yards that 22-250 still spanked them, have had a couple drop dead on the spot shot thru the chest area. I have not even come close to ol DSheetz in numbers, but have shot 12 to 35 a year for 37 years as a weekend warrior that just loves the challenges coyotes present............I have shot them a lot farther with larger calibers...6.5 creedmoor out to 860, 30-378 out to 1030, this is Mondamtana and we got lots of coyotes. And GUNNER1 is right earlier, we don't talk about our misses. :oops: DSheetz, you ol one upper👍 I "may" have killed close to a 1000 but probably not. But I sure would love to hunt a couple days with you up here.............got lots of access for 100 miles. Am an elevator manager, know all the producers. Up here a good day is around 6 killed, had a couple buddies that got 12 one day though, was 20 below and they said it was amazing calling.........the stomach rules. [/QUOTE]
