I went out early yesterday morning on a friend's ranch and set up on one of my favorite places. I put my FoxPro at the bottom of a dry wash in a clump of sagebrush and set up on a side hill about 70 yards away over looking the usual approach area. I was sitting behind a big sagebrush clump with my Savage 22.250 using a set of Stoney Point shooting sticks to elevate me over the brush.

I started the jack rabbit distress call and after about 10 minutes saw a nice coyote come over the ridge across the valley. He worked down the side hill and stopped about 75 yards above my caller for an easy 150 yard shot.

The nice thing about the heavy barreled 22.250 with the 50 grain Varmint Grenades is that I can see the impact and he was dead right there. He was about 25 Lbs. with a nice, heavy coat.
