Airgun takes backyard coyote
« on: November 26, 2022, 06:45:59 PM »
Just got back from the south. Nailed this on Thanksgiving morning before first light.

Airgun was shooting 38.5 grain projectile at 910fps.

Range was about 15-20 yards.

Passed through to behind the neck. Far back. Definitely overkill at short range.

Die fish!

What brand and model was it?

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

That's a 25 caliber rifle made in Sweden. Brand and mod is FX Impact M3.  I have tuned it to 970 fps in the past. Capable of a bit more. Bullet is 38.5 grains made by Nielsen Specialty Ammo.

That rifle is modular. Takes multiple calibers up to. 35 which can take a deer in one blow, technically. Never done that, prefer my bow
Die fish!

Nice job. And nice air rifle.  FX Impact M3's aren't cheap!

I have an Umarex Gauntlet .25 cal. I haven't taken any coyotes with mine....yet.
