Shotgun for coyote
I was wondering if its feasible to use shotgun sabots on coyotes. I don't want them for fur, i just have a friend that would like some help getting rid of some yotes out on his farm. I don't own a rifle so this would be my only means of shooting them.

RE: Shotgun for coyote
They are referring to a range limit for using buckshot. Slugs should be good out to any range you can successfully take a deer. If your gun is zeroed at 125, and you can hit a deer in the vitals and kill it at that range you should be good for coyotes at that range.

RE: Shotgun for coyote
I agree that the slug will work well if you don.t have a rifle and are okshooting with it, but I would have a 0 or 00 buck in behind the slug for the ones that get in your lap quickly and won't stop. Good luck!
