Whats the farthest youve ever hit a coyote? I love/hate my .243. It impresses me at times and at other times, i cant hit anything with it. Many of my coyotes i shoot at are 300 plus yards away. Ive shot quite a few at 300 over the years, and made one shot the other week at a beautiful male coyote out in the field about 450 yards away from my truck. at that range, theres quite the time delay from when the gun goes bang, to when the bullet strikes. I cant even remember where i aimed in relation to him, but i know i held well over his back as he was standing broad side. He ran about 60 yards before he collapsed, but the shot did kill him perfectly. I hit him right behind the shoulder and blew a bit of a hole in him, but a little hole is better than no coyote at all. Surprising that the bullet would exit at that range, I guess it didnt hit any ribs.

How far have you guys shot yotes, and with what calibre?
