It does a number on them.Itook it with me this evening because the coyotes had been hanging upin the brush on me.With the bullets I amusing, there is a large margin of error. A shot in the head, neck orchest will drop them instantly. If I can make a body shot through the brush, even if I don't hit the heart or lungs, the amount of damage done is enough to kill them or at least take enough out of them I can make a follow up shot to finish them off.

For a deer/antelope/predator cartridge, the 25-06 would be hard to beat.
