Finally able to connect with a coyote this morning with the 105 RDF out of my 6 Dasher and thought I'd share. After a hectic start to the morning with nothing ready a coyote decided to run out in front of the truck which left me scrambling for all of my stuff scattered in the back seat. Finally organized, I headed to the ridge the coyote crossed to see a doe whitetail staring off so I figured the coyote went that way. Sure enough I finally was able to spot the coyote standing in the stubble. Ranged him at 452 yards but he ran a few more yards but not enough to matter. A quick yap stopped him long enough for the 105 to be sent through the boiler room. At first it looked like I shot over since it took off sprinting, for 50 or so yards, and dirt kicked up behind it before crumpling up dead. When I made it over to it there was a lot of blood but that was from the running. Th shot was perfect behind the shoulder as was the exit which was about 1".
I also had excellent results with these bullets this spring for my Nevada rock chuck hunt. I was able to connect with a bunch of chucks ranging from 130 yards to 757 yards and all were pretty impressive to say the least. I expected these bullets to basically pencil through since the meplat is so small but they actually perform decent. I may try them on a whitetail doe that I have an extra tag for with other "hunting" bullets as backup but I expect they will do just fine.
The pictures may be graphic but want to show the bullet performance. The end of the piece of stubble is the exit.

they seem to be working well for me so far. If I get back to shooting the 110 smk that BC is hard to ignore.
