    Hunting & Fishing Let’s start a coyote thread.

    87 vmax is a solid choice. Killed dozens with 243, 6 Creed and 6 Grendel. I'm not sure about the 108 ELDM yet. Dropped several like a bag of dirt, but had one that must have not expanded at all. He was double lunged and ran 40 or 50 yards before deciding he was dead.

    What do I have here?

    Wish I had friends like yours. Those steel things with 4 die holes are called tool heads. I see 6 of them. They go for $20+ new, so maybe $15 apiece. There's two with powder measures attached. Maybe $100 each. Some primer pickup tubes. Not much. Hammer-looking thing is a bullet puller. Not...

    Savage Impulse

    I picked up an Impulse Predator in 243, and finally shot it yesterday. Impressions: The action is a lot smoother than I expected. -- Ample amounts of Hornady One Shot may have influenced that. Ejection (which is something that has plagued Savage bolts) is excellent. It really chucks those...

    Hunting & Fishing Let’s start a coyote thread.

    Not sure where you are, but when it's cold AF (-10 and lower) they will be more willing to work with you. IME snow can also influence how far they're willing to travel. If it's deep and soft, they have a hard time getting around, and won't venture as far. If it's hard / crusty where they can...

    22 Creedmoor Varmint Rifle questions

    I gives a damn about "fur-friendly". Dead is the only goal.

    22 Creedmoor Varmint Rifle questions

    @DIBBS how did this turn out? I'm looking into 22 Creed for yotes, and trying to figure out optimal barrel length considering a 9" can. I was thinking 18" or 20". Going to try 53 v-max, and maybe 73 or 80 eld.

    Perpetual Motion?

    Yeah, the ball going down the ramp and flying back looks suspicious... It's too fast. Edit: I won't completely spoil this for everyone, but there is a youtube video...

    I agree that most of it seems pretty random, but a warning howl / bark is pretty hard to mistake. It means they're not exactly sure what you are, but you're busted.

    Never tried the 60s, but the 53s are awesome out of a 22-250. They'll be less explosive out of the slower 223, but I'm sure they'd be more than adequate.

    They won't need any help finding it, but depending on how safe they feel about the area, they may only be on it at night. However, until it's gone, they'll be in the area, so doing a set nearby is not a bad plan.

    Put it somewhere you can sneak into, and also doesn't leave the coyotes exposed in the wide open. And you probably want to secure it somehow, or they'll just drag it off. A cow works better.

    Savage Impulse 1 year update

    Well, if you need another beta tester, let me know. I got a Predator in 243. I want to rig up a 22-250 barrel for it.

    Savage Impulse 1 year update

    @shoots100 You have any updates on this? Has the quick change barrel kit continued to work well? Does your machinist friend have any plans of producing and selling them?

    Savage and Tikka are some I know where the safety locks the bolt. I'm sure there are others. If the SRS was like that, we'd not be having this conversation.

    Coyote calling aint PRS or a square range where you have plenty of time to figure out how to engage targets before doing it, or in many cases just watched someone else do it. When calling, you're sometimes scanning with your binos, sometimes looking down at your e-caller remote, sometimes...

    Where is 6arc going?

    Just dump some pistol powder level with the case neck and tamp it down with a bullet. Might be a tad hard on brass, and the bolt, and pretty much everything, but there you go.

    7 PRC is released. Any thoughts? especially on the action length?

    Correct. I have a 26" 8 twist 7mmRM that I chuck 180 ELDMs with at over 3,000 FPS. I can do it with H1000 or RL26 without even stepping on it too hard.

    Real 6mm Grendel velocities?

    I'm not sure that they are... I think some use different bolts. For example, the 243 LBC uses a Type 1 bolt, not the Type 2 6.5 Grendel bolt. I'd also really think it through before cutting down an AR barrel (of any kind). DI relies on (among other things) a combination of gas tube length...

    Real 6mm Grendel velocities?

    Which "6mm Grendel"? 6mm Predator? 243 LBC? Something else? And which bullet? This probably doesn't help at all, but I launch the 87gr v-max at 2975fps out of my 22" 243 LBC using LeverEvolution.
