i believe my teacher is writing the book, anything that i would write would be stolen info, may end up in court. lol....
this one was a gift, i just regained permission on this farm 5 minutes from the house, the wind was wrong, i only went out to try and call in a grey fox just to be on the farm again. i got there, knew the wind was wrong so i used some natural barriers to my advantage, i put the call in this small field and a big swamp was right infront of me about 100 yards or so.. i started with jackrabbit for one minute and switched right over to grey fox pup, within 1/2 a minute i had eyes coming out of the swamp on a dead run to the caller. i let it get about 25 yards away when i threw up the gun, it saw me and stopped, i had 2 3/4 #4 shot copper plated in the first barrel, i figured at that range it would be not problem, i hit her right behind the shoulder and she wasn't even phased, she started back where she came from, i hit her again this time with 3in BB from the second barrel and flipped her a couple of times she went a little bit further and died. she was the only one that came in. i was gone from the house for about 20 minutes. sometimes i think the hunting Gods look down and say boy he can use an easy one today. This was that type of hunt.
i have always though a .17 hmr would knock a coyote flat but after the year we have had so far, they are one tough animal and they can take a hit.
