Excellent!! Man, that's my next quest. To take one of those at a distance. Couple of the picture's look a little cold for me. Nice pictures and great shooting bowhunt32.

nice shooting....what bullets were used?

[bowhunt32]

Thanks guys.. The bullet used on these was the sierra 85 gr. bthp. It's fairly rough on them though. I've since loaded some 75 gr v-max's over varget. They seem to shoot awesome, but haven't seen what they do as far as fur damage. I will say the 85 gr bullets hits them extremely hard.

[bowhunt32]

A few more.

That last picture is way cool! I don't know how you guys can shoot those innocent, defenseless, just looking for a meal, critters.

Nice shooting, btw.

It's really quite easy....let'm get in range, pick a spot, take a deep breath and slowly squeze. Nothing to it.

Looks like some nice Yotes you got there.

looks like there's something wrong with the "bolt" on this savage though .

Is the AR a 223 or 243 also?

[bowhunt32]

The AR is standard .223. Although hasn't seen much use over the last year. I bought both the .243 (pictured) and a 22-250 predator hunter that saw nearly all of use last season. I've been working up loads for the new predator hunter here recently. I'll have a hard time not taking that one.

Those are some really nice shots, both the pictures and the yote's. Where are you by the way, nice country. I don't have but one Savage, an old 340 in tripple duce, nice gun but I don't shoot it well and I don't think I want to mess with it. I reciently put an AR together in .223 with a heavy varmint barrel on it, itching to give it a try, I often have a chance at a second shot and it takes just that extra second to fan the bolt and the AR will give me that nearly instant second shot. I usually shoot the 22-250 with 55 gr. V-Max and Varget, and it is a killer on them, "if I do my part"!!

I am going to start going after them when deer season is closed here, found a spot where the deer hunters go, but don't do anything for culling out the coyotes, ;D, time to do something with that.
