Coyote Gun

My favorite would have to be my remington 700 lvsf in .17 remington. I have a leupold vx-1 3-9x40 and I installed a rifle basix trigger in it as well. I usually shoot 30 grain berger varmints out of it with good results.

Whatever's in the truck or by the door. Killed the last one with a Sako .222 from the porch.
Dedicated coyote/vermin gun is a Tikka in .243. Or the RRA Heavy bbled Varmint AR15.

I have taken a couple with .17 HMR. This round does not get enough love.

Don't know if it was a typo or not, but the .17 Rem is a COMPLETELY different animal than the .17 HMR. The .17 Rem is a centerfire hot rod! Left to right: .17 mach2 (22 lr necked down), .17 HMR (22 mag necked down), .17 Fireball (221 fireball necked down), .17 Rem. (.223 necked down)

That is just "NUTS"......................

Remington 700 in 22-250 with a Leupold VX-1 4-12x40, Harris bipod and trigger job done by local gunsmith.

 

[Hookeye]

.243 700 ADL w 4-12X AO Leupold. Probably yank it and go with 3-9X reg and put the other on a target .22 rf........for a walking varmint rifle I don't need that much mag.

I sometimes take just a handgun.

Olympic Arms with a Burris FullField 2 3x9x40

I have over a dozen predator rifles that I use in various applications throughout the season. I switch it up a little between the various states & regions I hunt.

The bulk of my coyote shooting is done with a custom Olympic AR of some sorth... 25WSSM or 22-250.... with a Nightforce NXS on top. I try to run the smaller rifles on cats.

I thought we had good days. I am humbled.

This is why I built up an AR varmint gun. It has worked for multiple shots. You still have to be smooth and patient.

Did you paint this gun,, how 'd you do it? I like the snow Camo

Awesome pics ........YOU DA 'YOTE MAN!

 

[SSGSAD]

Sorry, I don't do pics. Not savvy enough !!!!! I own an AR, with a match barrel, and that is what I would use if I ever get the chance to go !!!!!

 

[mrproc1]

Well,, I was outside late last night, around night around midnight heard maybe 4 or 5 coyotes..Man it was eire hearing them howl.My question is if one of them happens to get near me or my pets do I have the right to shoot one. I live in Brownsburg around 300 and Dan Jones. Any laws about shooting a coyote if they come close to the houses or my back yard.

 

[ctbreitwieser]

Finally got my lower built for the Bushy Varminter upper, and a new coat of paint.

Here's my Mossberg MVP 5.56 with a Blackhawk Traverse bipod and topped with a Nikon Prostaff 3-9x40 BDC with a Nikon 842 Antireflective Device.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is it about coyotes and foxes that people feel the need to stack them like cord-wood? Is everyone after the pelt money? The "sport" of just shooting something alive? Most people I've asked reply with essentially 'for sh*ts and giggles'.

I'm the last person anyone would call a tree-hugger, but they do actually serve an important role is a sustainable ecosystem. I have a homestead in farm country, hear them all the time, and haven't heard of any issues around here. I don't think any Brownsburgers are in danger of marauding coyotes mauling them at night. And we didn't have any issues with pets getting eaten while I was stationed in New Mexico, and we had coyotes living on-post that hung out by the dental clinic and housing areas. And on top of that, if it wasn't illegal to keep them as pets, you know a lot of hilljacks around here would have wolves/hybrids/coyote-dogs for pets.

Nice rifles, in any case.

 

[Hookeye]

Yeah, we're all stupid in Indiana, that's why we hunt furbearers (according to the regs) with cool rifles...................just to F up the natural balance the "enlightened" have to keep telling us about.

Thanks, but your little preface just doesn't cut it.

Brownsburg, the center of the friggin' universe.

Your self-admitted ignorance on this topic is glaring, but if you truly want help to understand a subject then maybe drop the passive /aggressive condescending BS. Until then, your ignorance, accusations, and condescending attitude are not excused.
