My second year of turkey hunting I/we killed a coyote that was trying to sneak up on our decoys. I shot him with leftover #5 pheasant loads at about 25 yards. My shot did not drop him in his tracks but it sure flipped him ******* over elbows. As he was leaving my partner hit him with 10ga. #5 turkey load and he made it about another 50yds before kicking over. I would be willing to bet that 50yrds would have been it even without the 10ga. assistance.
My first ever coyote was killed at 15 to 20yds with 7 1/2 birds loads. My brittanny was in hot pursuit and the old coyote never new I was there. Hit him head on with my skeet barrel on a 1100 Remington, he ran about 20 yds. Hit one about a week later in the butt, didn't kill him but he sure ran a lot faster after the shot. Looked like Wile E. Coyote on the roadrunner. ZOOOOOOMMMMM
