Anything handy. Last was a Mosin Nagant sniper at 440 yards on the run. Tumbled him end for teacup.

 

[husker]

now thats a tough shot. 440 yards on the run. watching them role like a empty 50gallon drum in a wind storm. thats what its all a bought when they see or wind ya.

 

[usmc1371]

Les Baer super varmint AR
.204 ruger
hornaday factory 32.grain
Leoupold 4.5x14 lr
26'' bbl
Its great when they won't come in close but to much gun and scope when they show up at 30 yds and you didn't see them comming. I am saving for an upper with a 20'' bbl and some sort of red dot sight or very low power scope.

 

[Boba Fett]

V6 Ford Taurus in the 65-70 MPH range.

I ran one over a few years back somewhere between Dallas and Texhoma. Seemed very effective and amazingly didn't damage the car.

[41magsnub]

Win Model 70 .22-250 with a Bull barrel. bullet is the Remington V-max something or other, same thing I use for prairie dogs.

Unless I am hunting, then it is whatever I happen to be carrying at the time. Killed them with everything from 12 ga 7 1/2 lead shot (it was really really close) up to a .45-70.

 

[hinton03]

Ken 22250. Looks like you have all the bases covered.

When in AZ, where the shots were longer, I used a Ruger #1 in 25.06 with a 24 " barrel, 3X9 Nikon scope and 100 gr Nosler Ballistic Tips.

In Kansas I used a Remington full stock Model 7 in .223 with a 20" barrel, 4X Bausch and Lomb compact and 55 gr Sierra's.

Never killed on with a shotgun, but I killing one bow hunting. He committed suicide by walking out in front of my 57 lb Black Widow PSX and took a cedar arrow with 125 gr magnus broad head.

All good fun; thanks for the ideas.

 

[bang_bang]

Steven's Model 200 bolt action in 300 Win Mag. I've loaded some 110 grain HP's that should be pushing around 3,400 fps.
I've never taken a coyote, but hope to in the next month or so. I figure those 110 grain loads will do the job on groundhogs too.
