At the ranch house we had fenced fields for the pregnant horses and cattle with clear yardage from the house of up to 600 yds. Lots of interested coyotes. So having used the .222 and .225 for some time I started to have a little deadly fun with a BP 45-90 and BP 44-40. This pict. is the Shilo sharps with the coyote dispatched at 350 yds. 90 grs. BP, 520 gr. PP bullet. He was truely poleaxed.

I had in an earlier post shown the results of 45-90 coy-dog shot. As mentioned at the time I also used a 44-40 Uberti 1873 with a 210 gr. soft lead bullet ahead of 36 grs. of swiss BP. Suprisingly this was a consistant killer up to 200 yds. with the barrel ladder sights. There was also one scratch shot at 300 when I was to lazy to grab a different rifle. With the lung/heart shot they reacted about the same as with a 222 Rem with the same placement. They would run about 10 yds and fall over dead. Pictured is a 200 yd. deaden.

Do you like the RRS Anvil 30 leveling over the traditional ball head?
I love shooting with the rrs anvil 30, but it isn't as nice for spotting. I run 2 tripods, both fat boys and one with the rrs 30 and one with the invert 60 ball head. Both are great. The invert 30 also very stable, super quick, 1/4 turn, easier to adjust.
