Re: one set--3 coyotes--good day...

Ripp,

Awesome job!! Great shooting! Believe it or not, but I do not own a varmint rifle. I've called coyotes in to the shotgun, chased them with snowmobiles and shot them, shot them while hunting other game, and have trapped many, but I've never owned a varmint rifle for myself.

Anyway, that's beside the point.

What were the distances? What is the max. effective range of the .204 on coyotes?

Congrats on a great day!





Der Jaeger,
Thank you--usually I let them get as close as I can --or just to see how close they WILL come..I have not done a ton of this but have had them at less than 20 yards--

As to effective range of the .204--guess that depends on the shooter..personally I have not shot the .204 a ton but have taken p-dogs at 300 plus..-as Darryl shows above --it appears it still works well at 400 plus..

Great shooting Darryl--rock chucks are my favorite--they are large and in charge...The last time I shot them I was using my .243 with 70 gr Ballistic tips..loaded to 3550 or there abouts--unbelievable effect...

Thanks

Ripp
