I agree and have experienced the same results with 50 gr. VMax in .223. I have only had one shoulder splash, and the coyote only ran off app. 30-40 yds. and died. Messy wound but still did the job. My experience is that Vmax's are very accurate in my AR's, which makes bullet placement much easier and more consistent, and when placed in the right spot they hit coyotes like the hammer of Thor. Most that I shoot are drt, or at worst might spin or struggle for a second or two before they die, but  don't leave the vicinity of the point of impact.

That's pretty much my experience to.I did have one 50 gr vmax pencil threw on a coyote shot real close it ran 50 yards and into a ditch.I kept telling myself in no way I missed  that easy shot.Well I didn't  found him in the ditch.Just one of those weird bullet failures.I am on the fence about using them for coyotes but I will still use what I have loaded.They are very accurate for long range shooting like a member mentioned they shoot like a laser.

This young coyote was way out there like 300 yards so I figured the round will drop so I aimed at the head wrong that's where I hit it.
