25/06 with 100 grain ballistic tip,first pic coyote look it straight on at about 7 yards it was way uglier than that pic shows.
Other one was about quarter size exit.
I use a shotgun mostly in Wisconsin and this is the closest thing to a coyote rifle I have. 3 stands tonight and we saw 4 coyotes but went full retard on a couple.

First weekend out. Lost one or it would have been 5.
They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

That rifle is a cobble job. Rem 700 Short action in .223..stainless action thats been dura-coated..the barrel is a Rem. take-off Chrome Moly in .223 that I had shortened to 22" and the stock is from an early 70s vintage Model 700 BDL The scope is some kind of Burris calibrated for the .223 and I use the gun for reduced loads ( about 22 mag level) for meat gathering and longer and less noisy gopher killing sessions.
