I said "hit well" not just hit. Go pace off 35 yards.It is not far at all and a well placed .22 long rifle at that range will consistently kill (and recovered) most animals on this continent.But, like i said, i would still like to have something somewhat bigger....

Why heck, I once killed a bear with a chewing gum wrapper and a match, its all in how its done fellas!

Hell, I once killed a coyote at 300 yards with my semi-auto .22 Marlin, and when the empty bullet casing came flying out, it hit and killed a rabbit hiding in the bushes fifteen feet away[8D]

I'd of had to see it to beleive it, the part about killin' the rabbit!

I've killed coyote with .22 long rifle before. I used the Remington yellow jackets and they were all under 50 yds. I would agree it is not the best cartridge out there for coyote but it works in a pinch.

My father in law has shot many yotes with a .22, then he started using his 5mm he recovered more with the 5mm than he ever did with a .22

You're good! [8D]
