Really good to hear about the Hornady 25 grain HP....A number of coyote hunters here in the states recommended it as their favorite bullet for fur, so I stocked up whenever I could find them. Judging by your pics, you aren't getting many exits even on the smaller critters. Just what I was looking for! I shot a bunch of fox ( greys) last year with a slightly downloaded 20 gr. Vmax and it did great but I wanted a bit more muscle for our coyotes....which I am going to start taking to task in October!


BTW...that rifle looks familiar, though mine is in a .223

My .17 is a modified Remington 700 LVSF and is rapidly becoming my favorite calling gun...
