I'm so tired of the word inhumane. You guys want to know what's inhumane? People calling themselves hunters who can't take kill shots with ANY calibre rifle. If you don't know where the heart is of an animal, don't shoot it. If you can't make an accurate head shot at 100yds you shouldn't be hunting period. Skill is what makes someone a hunter. Not hunting a coyote with a .308 and shooting it in the lung. If you can't call a coyote correctly hunting with a .338 lapua won't make you a better shot.
22 wmr. is a far better choice than the 17hmr for anything larger than a ground squirrel. I started out with a 17 and quickly traded up to a 22 mag, in actual shooting a 22 lr kills better than a 17 hmr. Thanks for the video.
Deffinitly think about upgrading to a larger caliber, Such as a 22-250, or 243 Etc. Not bad with a 22 MAG. But alll in all your going to get more out of the larger calibers then you are that 22.
I wouldn't recommend the .22WMR, hornet or LR for anything over 50yds on coyote sized game. Inhumane. 22-250,223,308, or my personal favorite, the .243 with 58 grain Vmax loads will put them down out to 500yds easily
@the934x4 .22WMR and LR sure...but the 22 Hornet can take Coyotes out easily past 100 yards...humanely. If you are using the pelts, most of the calibers you listed are wayyyyy to much. .22 Hornet, .204 Ruger and mayber a .223 handloaded down.
have you experimented with any of the slightly heavyer loads in the 22 win mag like the 45 grain win dyna point , and the old reliable 50 grain fed jhp? iv taken a number of coyotes with center fire stuff and anumber with 22 mag and 30 grain vmax but would feel a lot better with a slightly heavyer bullet in a 22 mag anothing 40 grs and up the 45 grain dyna point plated hollow points seem like they would hammer a coyote/wolf pretty hard with head shots and garentee penetration
@nitroexpress700 No I haven't experimented with any different loads other than the 33 grain jhp made by winchester. This is why I chose the 22 mag over the 17 hmr, the variety of different ammunition is awesome. I still have a 100 rounds in the wins, but look forward to running a few federals out the barrel and what ever else I can get my hands on. On this coyote the winchester jhp exploded on impact with only fragments of lead exiting the skull. I like how the round explodes like a grenade!
@Quadzilla010 nice right on man well on a positive not i was out trapping today and was about to shoot 6 coyotes with my 22 mag all were with the 45 grain dyna plated hollow points. nice neet entry wound and about a dime /nickle size exit on all head shots wich is fine it kills them drt and i like that fact exp since in northern ab and bc we got wolves i herd the 30 grain xtp is pretty nice and has some what delayed expansion then explosed inside im gonna be trying these as well
@countrymusic881 The .22 mag has a broader range of ammunition from brands to bullet weight. 17 hmr shoots a 20 grn round, which in my opinion is to light for shooting coyotes. Not to say it wouldn't kill but heavier rounds give more punch and do better in the wind. You can't go wrong with the 22 wmr.
@TheIrishHunting The drift camera comes with a elastic strap mount that can be adjusted for different diameters. I've chosen the head mount over the gun mount.
Have the 93GV but in 17HMR which has almost no recoil or lift and U can see the bullet impact which is cool & helpful. Mounted a Simmons 4x8 (should of went 4 a higher power) with a Harris bipod & sling. Shoots into a 3 inch wide circle @ 200yds. On small game we use the CCI 17gr. TNT cartridge, they R soooo EXPLOSIVE. Squirrel's and crows come part @ the seems, chucks, feral cats when hit with this round fall down dead. I'd use a 20gr jacketed bullet 4 coyotes, head shots only @ 100yds max .
If you can put a nice hollow tipped shot between the eyes its lights out!..... but simply it comes down to bullet placement. A perfectly placed shot behind the shoulder will terminate anything...
Nice shot! 65 yards is that about your limit with the 22 mag? I own the same rifle but w/ a 6 x 18 x 40mm Bushnell Trophy w/ adj objective. Savage rifles are tack drivers!
@moosebag99 with a .22, not a .22 mag, im reaching out nearly 3 times that far fairly accurately. i have a 3-9x40mm Bushnell on it, and i can hit a soda can 8 or 9 out of 10 shots at 175 yards with it. mine is a stevens model .300, which is pretty much the same as a Savage. i love Savage rifles, and for the price, you definitely cant beat them.
@moosebag99 When hunting coyotes i practice in my hunting position, which is the sitting position. I can do one inch groups at 80 yards, which is my max distance when head hunting and thats how i base my range limit. Remember we're dealing with light bullets that can be effected by wind, and other factors. .22's lose a lot of their kinetic energy past 100 yards. The heavier the bullet the more foot pounds of energy. I think hollow point 40 grainers would be the ideal round for the .22 mag.
@Axbent just checked out RWS ammo on the net, can't say i've seen that ammo here. Could only find the 40 grainer in the WMR, with a claimed velocity of 2020 fps. Wow, smoke n' fast!
that would be the only .22 i would ever consider for coyote hunting, with the stupid mnr regs i guess everyone who hunts coyotes is breaking the law yippee
bad ass i will be attempting to hunt yotes with my 597 HB 22 mag thanks for the videos we need more on here

@TheRossBeast technically any bad shooter can reach out over a mile with a .22 lr, question is, can they hit anything accurately.
hilers72652 10 months ago
@TheRossBeast No offense, but theres a big difference between just shooting 300 yards with a .22 and shooting a coyote at 300 yards with a .22.
