Catfish
ive used both the 40gr and 55gr vmax on coyotes. i cant tell the difrince between them. i do know past 150yds bullets rarely exit and a re one shot flop kills. inside 150 and its bloody gory mess with both weight bullets.
the 40gr bullet will be used on yotes, ground squrels, badger, rock chucks, and maybe fox or bobcat if the opurtunity presents itself.
other than that its seems these days the 2506 and 100gr bullets fills most my coyote needs
i thought you were wrong about the 40s trajectory but you arent at 300yds theres only about a half inch difrence between the two wich is unoticable. then theres about a 100fps difrince at that range. 40gr is running at 2660 and the 55 is at 2550
but i feel the 40s are worthwhile for me because there printing very well. and i have over 200 of them.
so ounce again you are right
