Dead Down Wind
Well-known member
It was another hot weekend so we bailed late Sunday morning after hunting all of Saturday.
1st stand Saturday morning, I started out with Rabbit, as soon as I turned on the call, I spotted a coyote leaving at around 600 yards, my partner ranged the coyote at 640 yards, I dialed up to 3mil and let her rip. I heard the THWAP and the coyote ran another 57 yards and passed away.
87 Grain Max out of my 6mm Creedmoor.
We ended the day with 2 more kills, got up the next day and headed to Nebraska, we know there are coyotes on this ranch, we only called in 2 and killed one of them, a pretty female.
We did a 3-4 mile walkabout to get the wind right, never saw another coyote.
Called it quits late Sunday morning in the 71 degree heat.
I feel when Coyotes shut off, they all shut off due to the Weather, Barometric pressure, Moon Phase and a million other reasons.
Partner missed 1 at 137 yards and then the same coyote again at 178 yards, we then had to check his rifle, dead on at 100 yards!!!
He had Coyote fever!!!
