Tia looked like a black and white socca ball all night. Totally pigged out

I doubt it was a car, not many about there!

Both instant drops, one through the head from the side and one from the rear at 90 yards. Also I had a friend that finished a buck his nephew shot with the 12 ga slug breaking its leg close to the body.( the boy shot, saw the deer fall and ran to get his uncle), one shot with a Ruger handgun in 22WMR at 40 yards through the lungs and he went about 50 yards and dropped.
It is a very useful round when pointed well, and it appears you are pointing it very well. My only complaint is I can't find any 40 gr hollow points or full metal jacket here. I see plenty of 33 gr but they are light for coyotes.
Cool, yes, if it don't say 40grn on the box I not interested!

Close, a CZ American model.
Thanks gents, better let the dog out
