ryan1990 Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 While home on leave from kuwait/iraq a couple weeks ago I got the chance to do some coyote hunting with my buddy and shot this little guy at 400+ yds with my 22-250 (my new longest shot) Its the smallest yote Ive ever seen but look how long his legs are! Does he look weird to anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryan1990 Posted October 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 It was a lucky shot too! I missed two before I finally connected. Luckily he was young and stupid and didnt know what to do. We first spotted him in the field about 150 yds out and my friend missed a shot at him with the .270 and he ran behind a little draw and we thought surely he was gone. Then about 5 minutes later he came back out roughly 300 yds away from us and my friend took another shot and missed again. The coyote took off towards the tree line on the far side of the field and I took a shot at him on the run and he turned around and ran back towards us then I shot again and he ran back towards the woods. He got about 5yds into the woodline and was about to be gone forever when my buddy barked at him and he stopped and I smoked him. Wasnt our prettiest kill but hey that little dude made a real small target at that distance. We joked that God sent us the dumbest coyote in the area cuz he wanted to give me a sure chance at killin somethin on my only chance to hunt in 12 months lol.
