Went out today, only saw one yote next to a ranch house on the way out. Wind was howling like a banshee and spitting snow. Pretty poor conditions. After hiking some new ground we called it a day early.
Imo I'd look at that 25-06 as a long range option. That 25cal pill will carry more energy further out and won't be as affected by the wind as a 40gr, 22cal. That being said I've also seen yotes dumped at 500+ yards with a 22-250 and a single shot.
That dog in the pic was at approximately 375yrds with a 50gr Nos Ballistic Tip and 35.5gr of Varget.
How far are you looking to shoot?
