Does anyone actually use there black rifle on coyotes?

[Dogleg]

Awhile back I used a Swiss Arms flat-top for coyotes. In the end I found that I was farther ahead with a good bolt-gun and let it go.

For shorter distances I will be using an FS2000. I just have not had a chance to do any small game hunting this year. Should be fun to get the old space gun out there.

For long shots I have an FNAR 20" heavy.

What are you guys using as far as optics go for your .223s? I have been struggling for what to buy. I am using Troy iron sights for now, and to be honest I like em a lot. I just dont think it will sufice for 75+ yards.

 

[ThrowBack]

I've gotten yotes with my AR-180b's. Iron sights. Nothing fancy. Also got one a couple winters ago with my .223 CSA vz58.

I use a Benelli MR1 for yotes with a vortex strikefire on top.

Newbie question. Are we able to build a NR semi auto rifle with parts legally shipped to canada from the US ? The price difference is huge !

 

[Camp Cook]

I do...

Scope is an older Leupold Vari X 11 4-12X40mm AO LR reticle rings are either low or medium Leupold PRW can't remember load = 40gr V-Max @ 3250fps.

Have it set up with my 6.8SPC upper installed right now heading out in a couple days to do a little coyote hunting with it loaded with 95gr TTSX @ 2880fps.

I also installed a FAST stock.

That must have been AWHILE back, your mag looks like it has around 15-20 rounds in it for the picture.
Ahhhh.... The good old days

I do. Swiss Arms BlueStar and Tavor. Most shots are under 200, so I use mostly iron sights, Aimpoint Comp M2 or Leopold MK 4 1-6X.

Couldn't find any coyotes, but did get into a bunch of prairie dogs!

In the cab of the truck, getting ready to assault a prairie dog town...

Actually judging by the terrain its not in Canada and I'd hazard a guess its south of the border.

Sharp eye! Montana to be precise.

How in the he** could you identify any terrain in that picture. It's just a rifle and inside of the door with a bright blob above on my screen. And yes i use my su 16 for coyotes and a buddy uses his csa vz58.

Dry infertile ground and what looks like sage brush was what gave it away for me.
