i shot my 39th of the season yesterday. at about 12,400 feet, called it in with a snowshoe hair distress. she was coming in and disappeared below a snowfield, when she did i got ready on a rock. but she never showed, next thing i know she is running away. i tracked her in the crosshairs and when she stopped she got a 60gr sierra at 3000fps right in the shoulder. 192 yds with a carbon 15 with 6x leupold.
for those of you who are going to tell me "their hides are no good right now", i know, and i dont care. shooting coyotes is one of the most wonderful things a guy can do any day of the year. if i killed every coyote i ever saw it wouldnt make a dent in the population. i killed about 16 within a mile of my house since last september, just last thursday i saw 2 while out spraying thistles. that utv needs a rifle rack.
