My aunt shot a coyote with a 10/22 at a claimed 150yds. Hit that dog right in the top of the head and dropped him. My uncle was with her and at the time, he was working for the Dept of Agriculture, trapping and hunting predators on ranches (40+ hrs a week)...anything that ate cows, sheep, or whatever so I trust his judgement on the distance.
Intersting job he had back then. He got to do the unusal bear, lion, coyote type hunting (and a good bit of hog hunting thrown in too); but the weirdest one was at a trout pond where a black bear was tearing into the fish food and eating it. Had to trap that sucker and move him.
