Title: my first coyote
Post by: savage270girl on November 01, 2011, 09:07:07 PM: 150 yards with my 270

Opening day of deer we walking down this old road and saw the coyote. He stopped at looked at us then took off down the hill. We went to the top of the hill to see if we could see him down there. About 150 yards down the hill it was just sitting there. Got it with the first shot. First ever kill for the 270.
