It'll work, I've done it. Its not exactly ideal, but as long as you can place the bullet where it needs to be (under 100 yards preferably) it'll more than likely be a dead coyote or fox.

I've shot a BUNCH of yotes with the .22 mag and it will do the job easily assuming good shot placement & within effective range. When shooting edible small game such as rabbit & squirrel with .22 mag, go with fmj or solid bullets. I've seen too many yotes run off after being shot with rimfire .17s.
