Bobcat's first yote of 2009

[bobcat]

I should mention, I used a 12 gauge load of 1 1/4 ounce of BB's and the first shot was around 35 yards, second shot maybe 5 to 10 yards farther out. I should have been able to kill him at 25 yards as he was facing me but I just wasn't quick enough in getting the gun up. When I began raising the gun he started moving off, and luckily he didn't seem to be in too big of hurry, but nevertheless I didn't feel like giving him much time to put a lot of distance between me and him.    That's the nice thing about the shotgun, it was quick, but it was also good knowing I had BTKR to back me up with his 243.

Nice work, I love rollin yotes over with the scatter gun!

[bobcat]

Rick, how much are those "Dead Coyote" shells?  I was thinking about picking some up, although the 2 3/4 inch BB's that I bought 20 years ago seemed to do ok.

That first photo is kind of funny. You could almost make a caption for it. 

Bobcat to coyote in a thick Jersey accent, "How you doin'?"

I was gonna get some Hevi- Shot Dead Coyote shells, but I couldn't justify the price. . .$30/10 shells. . .I ended up buying som #4 buckshot instead at $5/5 shells. . .I can get 3 times as many shells for the same price. . .and what difference are 15 "bb's" gonna make really. . .although the 70+ yards thing on Hev-Shots website sure caught my eye. . .I wonder if my #4 buck can go to 70 yards effectively??? 

I haven't had a chance to find out yet because I haven't seen a coyote to shoot at since the snow fell on the ground out here on the West side of the state!!!!

i have over 8 box's only had to pay for a couple. when i shoot something with the deaed coyote you know when it hit's.  i have a bunch of buck shot to. most guy's at predatormaster's use buckshot. TRoick

[bobcat]

Well, I'll probably pick up some #4 buckshot whenever I get a chance. Or, a box of 3 inch magnum BB's, if there is any of that to be found. But I've still got 22 of the 2 3/4 inch BB's, 1 1/4 ounce. I'll have to get rid of them first, or maybe I should just save them for bobcats. Bought a box of 25 in 1989 for $10.79.

It is being served at the Meet. I think it will be disguised as chili.

There's no way I could hold onto shells that long!!!
