[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1511746, member: 85987"] I do a bunch of hunting over frozen lakes for coyotes and understand completely about not having any wind flags out there:D. As dramatic as a high shoulder shot is I prefer not to shoot above the ball socket at anything 4 legged. I live in the east so getting shots like this are not common at all. Alex do you feel if you had anything different other than placement your result would have been the same? Meaning a 215/.30 mag or 338 combination? I don't but I also have no experience at those distances for reference either. Coyotes and crows are all I get to hunt at long range as a rule. Both energy and placement really don't compare with the fragmentation bullets I'm using on such small targets. [/QUOTE]
