RE: 22 LR and Coyotes
I have killed many coyotes with a .22mag and some with a .22lr.I dont think it requires you shoot them in half to kill them.I will give them credit they are tough but not that tough.I use to take atleast 40 a year where I worked(on a large cattle farm)it was common to see 10 aday during the winter.That may not be many to all of you but that was alot to me.I always had my trusty .220 swift but I also carried my .22wmr.At 75 to 80 yards you could kill a yote as easy with that .22wmr as a high power.No I didnt try to head shoot them either.It does require you to get close to them,but it is not that hard to make a clean kill with a .22wmr and at around 50 yards with a .22lr.We have people on here deer hunting with a .22hornet and I dont hear anyone bashing that,a.22wmr isnt that far behind a hornet in the power range.So it wont kill a yote????
