Will it kill them YES. Out to 100 yards. Will you find evidence of them lying dead within 100 yards of the shot. NO. Not at 100 yards. They are tough little critters and will run a long distance even if double lung shots are taken.

I use a win 9422M and 50 grain federals for fox and within 100 yards chest shot DRT. There were not coyotes in Indiana then just fox. Now I use a rem 700 222 and they still run some. I think the 222 is oerfect for yotes and ground hogs out to 222 yards.
