got set up this morning. turned on my decoy, hit the caller, and with in 30 seconds this female coyote came running in. took about a 50 yard shot. ran about 15 yards and dropped. picked up my 22-250 on black Friday and I have been waiting for today. buckmastertate and myself have been shooting to get ready for are annual predator contest. to bad he does not have a chance this year.

If you want to shoot anything bigger than a 25-06 or .257 weatherby your prob gonna have to hand load.
Can't use anything bigger than 25 cal on yotes so they are about as big as you can get and you need 80 grain or lighter projectile no matter what caliber you choose. Unlike the woodchuck regs. Not sure why the state didn't just adopt the woodchuck rifle regs for coyote as well.
