Default RE: what kind of gun for cyotes??

ORIGINAL: wihunter1388

I hunt in a fox/coyote group, we run dogs and have a mixture of woods/fields if any one has an AR-15 we dont let them hunt because they are loud and you could easily loose control of your shots and hit something intentionally. I have seen it done before. And what ever you get, dont use a FMJ they just bounce off the ground until they hit something hard like tree or house
Go with the bolt action .223 or .243 most sporting goods sell ammo and .223 is cheap but you could also use a .30/06 with 50 grain ammo but they are so unaccurate its tough hitting a pie pan at 100 yards with it
You make NO sense AT ALL!!! First off you said they hit stuff INtentionally, I think you mean UNintentionaly. Second, whta is a FMJ, If its an automatic I can understand you hammer the trigger and dont hold on to the gun. Sorry to take over the thread switchback

I personally park in the middle of a big open field with the creek running along the side and sit in the back of my truck, lean up against the roof and use my 7mm Rem. Mag with a bipod attached and take'm out!!!
