I just do it for the "waaaP!" I'd rather their fur is crap. Then I dont have to drag them anywhere.

Are you referring to an exit on a deer or coyote?Thought about trying the 77gr smk but after seeing what it did to my deer this year I won't use them when I want to save fur. The exit had a piece of lung the size of my hand hanging out of it.
I don't want to derail this thread but I just have to clarify.This was the exit on this year's late season doe. When I'm not worried about fur I won't have a problem using them its just too much for what the fur is going for at the moment. Otherwise it worked great on this deer.
I noticed this on the fur I took yesterday in Missouri, seems a little early , but, it is what it is...Coyote fur in North Dakota. Looking terrible a month early.
It's also dirt cheap, unlike "camoform" which is basically the same thing with a pattern on it. It also comes in brown to cover those shiny stainless barrels.For you guys that often call in snow and want removable camo for your rifles, go to a local farm and ranch store in the horse section and get some white “vet wrap”.
It sticks to itself and doesn’t harm the finish on you stock or barrel.
I shot one last year with almost the exact same rifle and ammo. If you are not worried about holes in the fur, the IMI works great.Working my way through this thread.
Anyone use 77 grain SMK?
Rilfe is 18 in WOA SPR with .223 Wylde chamber and factory IMI 77 grain Razorcore
Great info! ThanksI shot one last year with almost the exact same rifle and ammo. If you are not worried about holes in the fur, the IMI works great.
Another question:
...What are people's experiences with gas guns in single digit temps?
When I ran a gas gun in any extreme cold conditions Ide just coat everything with slip 2000 it handles the temps ad keeps moisture from beading up and freezingGreat info! Thanks
I am not worried about fur, just racking and stacking
Another question:
I am a HUGE fan of running/testing your gear in all conditions PRIOR to hunting/depending on it......however....I live in KY and while it does get cold.....single digits are not the norm.
Unfortunately I have not and will not have a chance to test my gas gun for reliability in single digit temps prior to this weekend where I am competing in a local coyote comp for some fun.

Thanks for the tip, another member recommended slip 2000 as well.When I ran a gas gun in any extreme cold conditions Ide just coat everything with slip 2000 it handles the temps ad keeps moisture from beading up and freezing
The bottle says the range is from -110 to +1250 degrees F, so I think you're goodThanks for the tip, another member recommended slip 2000 as well.
I will be adding that to my regimen.
How does it run all the way up to 100F?
Awesome, any issue running suppressed with it?The bottle says the range is from -110 to +1250 degrees F, so I think you're good
I’m also from KY western side. I’ve ran slip 2000 from -38 degrees out west hunting in the winter and the mammoth the last year it was at ky when it dipped down in the -degrees for most of the weekend then I’ve read it up to 100degrees in high humidity never been an issue it’s my go to lube now for anything gun related other than barrel cleaning and suppressor cleaning. Always ran suppressed never and issue there either.Thanks for the tip, another member recommended slip 2000 as well.

How does it run all the way up to 100F?
We went almost non stop for 29 hours in ambient temps as low as 3F, over a foot of snow, I think 14 sets and over 500 miles ......didn't see a damn thing.
Some places are wild life management areas that may be hunted a lot. We are trying to get access to more private land.
KY recently changed hunting at night. A couple years ago they added night time hunting ok for the first time ever ...BUT......only December to March and ONLY with shotgun with no slugs
This year they kept time period the same but added center fire up to 6.5mm on PRIVATE land only.....night time on public land is still shotgun only
We had a good time none the less.
We hunted with a red spot light and fox pro. There's some NV literally on the way for some of the guys I hunt with.
I started another thread in the NV section asking for recommendations for getting NV set up on my Leupold MK4 spotter and I'll let the other guys get NV scopes for now.
I can speak HIGHLY of mil surplus ECWS ......the level 7 pants are THE shit

We are about to send out a massive amount of letters with intent of being respectful and hoping to get 1 or 2 permissions out of 30 letters or soWhat is your guys approach for trying to acquire additional land to hunt? With covid, I’m not sure people would like me knocking on their door to ask. This is farm land, where the owner does not live on the same property and lives in a different town per HuntStand/OnX.
Has anyone sent letters? If so, what do you include? Found some new areas I’d like to try and be able to hunt but want to find the best way to approach it.

Thats a good way to get permission to hunt coyotes on private land! What are some of you're tactics in general for getting permission on farms?Pulled up to a new farm this morning and this one bolted from the hay barn. It crossed a fence and stopped and watched me load a round, aim and fire.

Only one person answered so I’d say your question is still validThats a good way to get permission to hunt coyotes on private land! What are some of you're tactics in general for getting permission on farms?
ETA: Sorry my dumbass missed the comment halfway up the page asking the same thing..
Got to love it when they stop and look at you with the “you gunna shoot or not” look!Pulled up to a new farm this morning and this one bolted from the hay barn. It crossed a fence and stopped and watched me load a round, aim and fire.

@Mavrykk I always wanted to shoot one lengthwise with a 300WM along the spine to see if its possible to filet a coyote
Dibbs, I am going to get one with my 45 70 and 325 flex tips. Hoping for inside 50 yards@Mavrykk I always wanted to shoot one lengthwise with a 300WM along the spine to see if its possible to filet a coyote
