Large bore coyote kills

[J E Custom]

I have shot several with my 338 RCM and learned that if you shoot them from the front or the back, The bullet carries bone fragments with it and destroys the Coyote.

If you shoot them from the side, the bullets construction prevents it from doing much expansion on light game.

FMJs are preferred for pelt hunting If a larger caliber is used.

I once tried my 416 Buff on a deer using a 400 grain Barnes x and the exit wound was almost the same size as the entrance. The deer never knew what hit him, and there was no ruined meat.

Not big bore. But this was a 7mm rem mag, 162s at 3100 fps. Shade over 200 yards.

Yeah... I don't much care for yotes.

I got a few puppies killed by them as a child. Life long vendetta.

Any of you guys got any coyote kills with .338 and above? Care to share some pics.

I would love to see them

Lucy used to keep them far away. She did not like coyotes and they were scared of her.

We've lost a few rabbit dogs to them. Best dog we ever had lost to the coyotes. If I see a coyote, I'll do everything I can to make sure it doesnt make it to see another day.

Why shoot something small when you can call in your own artillery?

I'll be perfectly honest with you, I really want to empty a yote out with my 300RUM and 230 Bergers.

I had a hunch that 6.5x 284 would do some nice damage
