Ok I need to clarify a little here... I will be using the 835 Ultimag for the close range shots on coyotes. I do not want to change it from a turkey set up to coyote set up... I asked about shot size because I know that at 55 yards or less the pattern density from my #5 turkey shot is awesome... So is there a shot size like a #1 or #2 shot that I can put out of my super full choked 835?
I will be using the .17 HMR for yote hunting because most of my shots will be 150 yards or less... Mostly less since I will be hunting wooded areas and a few open fields here and there. I found a .17 HMR for around $275 and ammo is plentiful at the store where as .223 or .22-250 ammo is like trying to find a lost $50 bill in the middle of the ghetto if you know what I mean!
