[QUOTE="tt35, post: 527234, member: 25362"] I think JE is pretty accurate in his estimations. My nephew took a rockchuck at 1264 yards this spring with his .308. [URL]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f31/1263-yard-rockchuck-74527/[/URL] But a coyote won't stand around that long. If you aren't too hung up on a .308, you might look into a .260, 7-08 or even a fast twist 6mm cartridge (.243AI??). They'd be adequate for smaller big game species, have better BC bullets available, have less recoil and be cheaper to load for. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
