Huntr104 Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'm new to coyote hunting and in my home state of Rhode Island we are limited to hunting with only rimfire. So I'm using a .22 WMR seeing this is my only choice what would you recommend for shot placement? thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 You will have to get a little closer. Would think similar to a deer tight behind the shoulder would be a good choice. Where I typically aim. Dont know about a head shot with that round, would probably be ok so long as you are close enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I usually shoot them just like a deer, right behind or on the shoulder. They wont go far if you hit them in the lungs/heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardwood_HD Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 like they said behind the shoulder but dont hit the shoulder or you probly wont get much penetration, i only went for headshots with my 17hmr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GobblerBuster618 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 i think a head shot will sure stun the heck outta them if it doesnt kill them.. get close tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebeilgard Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 i agree with the behind the shoulder shot. lungs, heart, liver... can't go far without one.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
