This is my close range Coyote & Pig Gun Ruger 10/22 ,FAB Defense Stock , Sightmark Wraith Digital DAY / NIGHT Scope , I use the 40 grain CCI Velocitor copper plated Hollow Point at 1435 fps it hits hard penetrants deep and has killed several coyotes and hogs out to 100 yards .I live inside the city limits. I have about 14 acres and I am the ONLY residence on my road, on the Arkansas side anyway. The Oklahoma/Arkansas line runs right on the edge of the road on my property. We have a lot of coyotes cross our property.
I have a Great Pyrenees and a Rottweiler, but I worry about the possibility of rabies, so I don't cut them loose on the coyotes when I see them. I do, however, have a solution. My 1947 Mossberg 44US(c). For those who are not familiar with the Mossy, they were originally designed and built for the Army as training rifles. It has a rod that screws in to the bottom of the magazine, allowing for using shorts without them moving forward in the magazine. With CCI CB Caps it is as quiet, even quieter, than most suppressed 22s I have shot.
I have it sighted in at 75 yards and have shot a couple of coyotes without alerting any of my neighbors in Oklahoma.
Here is a picture of my Mossy and the 'Pill' that does the trick.....
