[QUOTE="Ohlongarm, post: 1878798, member: 112151"] Sir,I've heard this many times before on yote frontal chest shots,if you measure a yote between its front legs as it were standing and looking at you the chest even on a big dog is barely 5 inches wide.With that being said the kill zone is tiny and resulting shots don't hit the vitals but skim hair and hide and the dog runs off virtually unscathed.Frontal chest shots are difficult,but this has been my experience back in the day when there was a learning curve. Good Luck.The 32 V-max runs at about 4020 fps and has a very high BC of 0.275 At 400 yards this round still has 450 foot pounds and less than a foot drop,way more than enough to kill a coyote,I've used that round several times and all dogs dropped and never moved an inch. But anyway things do happen.This dog took a 204 right in the chest low with a 204 32 grain Blitz King round @ 4045 fps at a little over a hundred,see entry and exit devastating blew a healthy amount of his innards out,he never even flinched.[ATTACH type="full"]187891[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
