I've not had good luck with the .17 hmr at long (100 yds) distance, but this weekend I went to the woods (more like thicket) and called two songdogs in four sets. The first never gave me a shot (because i was in a thicket

) and the second I killed at ~ 30 ft. The first shot was in the chest, she raised hell for a second, so i killed her with a head shot.
I was shooting the 20 grain hollowpoint rounds- I like them WAY better that the ballistic tips, but still wouldn't go past ~75 yds with one.
Full moon with snow tonight!!!!!! As long as it doesn't cloud up it will be a GREAT night to kill coyotes!

PS. using Bearmanrics mouth calls! Thanks Rick, I'm leaving the e caller at home.
