22 Mags for coyotes - 04/18/19
Been using 22 mags since 1976 for hunting small game . At that time i used my dads Anshultz.. Back in 1991 i got interested in hunting coyotes and in Tennessee you can't use centerfires during bow season so i bought a Marlin 25MN in 22 Mag. I put a Tasco 4x on it and "Wammo" i had a coyote gun. I did pretty good and ultimatly bought a BRNO ZKM611 22 mag auto. In 2007 I picked up a Cz552 Varmint and last year i bought a Ruger American Predator. I have settled on the Federal 50 grain load as the best for me but i have had good success with the Winchester 40 Hp. I haven't tried some of the newer loads but i will get around to it. I read threads about huntin yotes with the 22 mag all the time and it usually causes a lot of emotional responses. I think they work well if you hunt ethically and know your gun.
For me yote season starts about the first of October when we get that first cool weekend. Had the BRNO out the other day checkin zero . . It's only 6 months......
