Your coyote rigs

This is an old pic, but the rifle still goes with me.

It's an old Browning A-Bolt in 22/250 with a 3x9 B&L. I'm not really crazy about A-Bolts. but this one's a keeper. I've shot many 1/2" groups with this rifle. :D

I use a 25WSSM A-Bolt Varmint Stalker with VXIII 4.5-14 varmint reticle. The only thing not stock is the trigger and the reloads. 85gr B/Ts @3550fps and 110gr A/Bs @3130fps. I really like the .25 cal for it's ability to buck the wind and long range accuracy.

Sounds cool... but weren't the 788's all "short actions"? Will your rifle be a 'single shot' or do you think the 6.5x55mm ctg will feed from the 788 detachable magazine? Reason I ask is that a number of years ago I had a 788 in .30-30 Winchester. Thought I'd have the best of both worlds being able to load the .30-30 ctgs with spitzer bullets. I found that when seated properly in the .30-30 casing the OAL ctg length using spitzer bullets made it too long to feed from the 788 .30-30 magazine. So, I had a nice 788 single shot in .30-30 but she sure was accurate! ;)
 
If I was more into varminting and lived where there was more groundhogs and coyotes to blast off the farmer's fields, I'd use a custom 222Rem and a 257Roberts. :)

I've shown pics of this rifle before, but this is my Leeper-built M700 223 Ackley. Pac-Nor 24" barrel with Bansner stock, and a Vari-X III 4.5-14X40 A/O matte scope with Premier #4 reticle and M1 elevation turret. It weighs 8 pounds 5 oz all up. My coyote load is the 50 grain V-Max at 3650 fps. If I sit down in good conditions and shoot a 5-shot group at 100 yards larger than 3/8", I KNOW I messed up.

My new one is a Remington 700 VSSF II in a 22-250, will be topped with TPS base and rings holding a Leupold VXIII 3.5-10x40mm. Also have Williams bottom metal otw for it and a tubb firing pin/spring.

Custom built Mauser 1909 Argentine in 6mm Rem. VX II 3-4x40
55gr Nosler at 4010fps. I've never shot a load like this before and it is hard to get used to aiming low even at 300 yards! It is only 2" high at 100.:eek:
Got one on boxing this year too, the whole family in the house behind watching and cheering when I dumped one on the run at 310.:D Classic Christmas supper! :D

I've heard talk of a wolf hunt this year and to that end I've picked this as my dog rig. 7mm wthby L61R action 26" barrel VX II 3-9. Makes very nice groups @ 200 yds with hot 139 interbonds.
