Your 'yote rifle and...

[Rifleman513]

Most of the area I call have the above mentioned animals, though I normally call more in the winter when the bruins are sleeping. Last year I carried my 257 wby a lot simply because the 100gr Barnes do very little damage to the hide. When sticking to your 3 cartridges I usually use a 22-250 and generally carry a 3" 357 anytime I head out. Depending on the areas I will be calling sometime a shotgun is taken for close shots as well. Ive never really purposely took something bigger to deal with larger "varmints".

option #5, unless I'm hunting with a buddy, then one of us carries a 12 gauge for up close encounters.

Option 1 - I always pack my Glock 29 when out hunting. I worry just as much about 2 legged critters as I do 4 when I am in the woods. Also my go to daytime coyote gun is a 25-06 with 115 gr bergers. Not a grizzly gun, but enough medicine for most predators I encounter out coyote hunting.

 

[Capt RB]

243 or 243ai 87 vmax and 12 ga 500 or 835 Triple bb in the 500 and T in the 835 IC and modified chokes. If I have a pistol it's a 4" H&R 22lr.

[cgarb]

Ar15 5.56 with at least 3 full 30rnd mags, a 500 S&W for grizzlies, and a 300 win mag Kimber Advanced tactical for long range work. I don't go that far from the house before I pass out from exhaustion. I know that sounds silly, because it is meant to be. As long as I possess a firearm, being that I am human and have conceius thought I feel like the superior species. Not that I would want to go against a grizz with a 22lr, but I would take that over a stick.

I hunt in that most of the time. Typically I have a 12 ga with #2 hevishot or BB lead in my hands and a small caliber rifle of some sort on shooting sticks. I usually have a G22 on my hip. There is NOTHING getting past a load of hevishot at 10 yards so I don't worry much. The rifle is for the coyotes that hang up at 100 yards. The Glock is just in case...

Remington Versa Max, 3.5", 00,View attachment 114376 with an EO Tech. It's a killing machine that I carry with me every where I go.

I have a Benelli Supernova with a Burris Fastfire III (3MOA dot) in a speedbead and it's a fun gun

 

[Scrumbag]

5.56 AR with a 1-6x scope and 70gr Barnes tsx. Then carry a Remington 870 with 00 buck.

That sounds effective! What barrel twist? I have a 1:9 on my CZ 527

Wilson Combat 8 twist. It'll park 5 of those Barnes into about a nickel at 100 yards.

Sounds excellent! I like the heavier bullets. Currently using 62gr Federal Fusion in my rifle
