Really!! Maybe in your hands, but the 22 mag. has failed to drop yotes, and will do so as long as guys keep using it. If you shoot enough of them with it, you will loose one, no matter who you are. So how many coyotes have ya shot with it then, I'd guess not many!!
The 22 mag. is not the ideal coyote gun, it requires a very well placed bullet, and most guys aren't seasoned enough to get a coyote to stand around long enough for that well placed shot to happen. Will it kill a coyote, sure, but it's not the best coyote medicine. You shoot a coyote in the boiler room, you better have tracking snow, as they can and will go a long ways before piling up!
IMO!!
