I agree with Tim that something magic happens to a 25gr bullet when you drive it at or near 4000fps. It will flat dump a coyote with amazing authority. Speed kills in a 17. That’s how I got hooked...

I can see the added power/velocity over the hmr on a critter the size if a coyote as being an advantage, but still see it as a bit anemic. On a big western coyote i wouldn't be able to make myself...

I find it a bit amusing that some of the advertising I have seen on the wsm is marketing it as a coyote round. I find that pretty laughable. Fox, yeah. But coyotes? I have a hard enought time...
