well when he's going to comment on my post and say I'm lying i take offense to that. There's already enough negativity outside the hunting community.

No worries, chill out every one.
Mis understanding.
It's an un written rule to show our

He has posted some coyote kills.

I should have explained I couldn't get the pictures because they dropped far and it was away from my truck and i wasn't trying to walk that far just to still end up leaving them where they dropped, and i apologize.
Here are the 2 from the next night, followed by one on Thursday i got.

I think "without pictures its just hearsay" is a proper way of saying "pix or it didn't happen!" lol I dont wanna put words in his mouth but I think he was just yanking your chain a little. But man those are some nice yotes! I wanna make a throw rug or blanket out of some coyote furs one day. Keep up the predator work!
In that top most picture... if I were you... afterward I'd go back to THAT area, like with a .17 HMR, and sit around having fun popping Ground Squirrels and/or Voles. looks like Voles or Pocket-Gopher holes all around by his head there. They look like they've recently be used to.
I know right! Thats one of my next purchases I don't have one yet. Definitely will go to fine fire arms again they are awesome. John is the one who said I should share my kills here!
Haha - ya that John is a good dude! Bet he would never give you a hard time on this forum!
@Nicksurfs96 the real statement should be look WHO’s forum you are on as in the entire forum not just this thread. People like pictures “no pictures or it didn’t happen” is pretty much how we bust each other’s balls around here don’t take it personal.
Dude... seriously... you will SOOOOO love the accuracy of the .17 HMR!! It's a freakin' laserbeam! With some shooting sticks, you can hit ridiculously small targets. For "Spits" & Giggles I setup an old expended 12 Gauge shotshell I found out there onto a branch of some deadfall... walked back 82yards... (rangefinder verified) then shot it down no problem!
It's so cool not having to worry about drop when shooting rabbits and squeeks out past 80+yds. And since recoil is like nothing you get to see it hit in the scope too when you take the shot!
And they are not expensive! I got a brand new Savage 93R17 FV, that has a full-contour barrel, on sale for $249. Then just put a Crossfire II 3-9x40mm on it. And that cost like $139 new from OpticsPlanet if I remember right. And I totally love their AccuTrigger setup that a few other manufacturers have now started copying
The rifle likes the Hornady NTX lead-free 15.5 gr with Polymer tip. And also shoots the CCI TNT GREEN 16gr hollow-points just as accurately. I think the TNT GREEN's would work better on something a little larger like a Bobcat or Yote, looking at the wounds, they didn't seem to open-up very much when passing thru Ground-Squirrels. (Same as I noticed when shooting Ground Squirrels with .223 in 50gr Hornady FullBoar GMX's, which obviously aren't a small-game or varmint round, so it makes sense those wouldn't expand rapidly on a Ground Squirrel) The NTX's notably opened-up much more aggressively on both the Rabbit and Ground Squirrel.
I never get tired of watching Rabbits do backflips with that thing! And because of the accuracy, you can sit a substantial distance away from them so they don't spook as long as you're wearing some concealment, backed up against something to breakup your outline, and keep your movements slow and to a minimum. And with that light-weight projectile, you have almost no risk of it being able to hit or penetrate a target behind any kind of brush that might happen to be behind what you're shooting at. It's the same weight as a pellet coming out of a .22 cal air rifle. Just moving a lot faster is all.
I didn’t know that and I especially didn’t know that was John ! He’s the one who got me on here in the first place. I thought someone I had never met was saying I’m bluffing but knowing who is who now I feel really stupid and I am sorry I got so defensive
Water under the bridge.
John busting your ass.
All is good.
Suggestion: buy a deer rifle.
Look ahead what do you want
Hunt in the future.
