How's your yote huntin goin ??
I ride horses and a western hat don't keep my ears warm in the winter time so, I use yote's , I got this one with my 50 cal T/C Hawken at 45 yds, And IMHO I agree with the boy that said wounderin em is not a good thing, They take it out on pets and small children, We have a breed that they call coydogs round here, And they ain't scared of people, A neighbor was turkey huntin last year and turned round and had one creepin on him, it was bout 20 feet when he seen it acomin, He fired a shot and it ran, He told me he wasn't tryin to hit it, he didn't have time, And that is strange cause a yote don't like the smell of gun oil (I believe), They do drop fast with a 50 cal thru the lungs tho,,,

HANDI RIFLE

Picked up my handi rifle today in .223. It's not a tack driver. I'm hoping the groups come down. It may just be the cheap scope I put on, (bushnell 3-9X I had on my Marlin 336 last year,) or it maybe has to break in a little. Another couple of trips to the range and then off to the bush for some yote calling.

Hello New Coyots Hunter...

Like you I am new to this forum but look forward to hearing much from the others here. Do I understand correctly that the area you live in does not allow for anything other than shotgun and .22 LR/MAG? If caliber is not an issue there I would highly recommend a Savage Model 10GXP3 in .223. If you get the package it comes right out of the box with rifle, sling and a decent 3X9 varable scope. The day I bought mine I went out and had it zero'd in at 100yds in 4 clicks. I was amazed at the quality of the rifle itself and the new AccuTrigger™ is awesome!

Another very good option is a Winchester or Browning in the new .25 WSSM. While either of these are a bit more pricy than the Savage you still get a lot of gun for the buck. Personally, I went with the Savage because of a long history of great craftmanship and low price.

I apologize for rambling but you will be hard pressed to take down a 60# coyote with a .22 and wanted to suggest another caliber.

Death to all Coyotes! =)
