Should be allowed to shoot those bastards on sight

[Mik]

Just saw a large coyote running around my neighborhood. If I went out there and put him down I'd get arrested for shooting in the area. There's enough greenspace back there that there's be no danger of hitting anything else of a ricochet.

I saw one rather mangy looking one run right through my backyard years ago when the boy was still very little. Freaked me out a bit.

First one I've seen in this neighborhood. Pretty weird to see them this time of day.

This time of year, we have black bears aplenty back home. They're goofy and just want your trash, but yeah, keep your pets inside.

[Mik]

Yeah, but a cat can outrun a bear pretty easily. Not so much a coyote.

Need the right tool for the job. The .300 Blackout is a derivation of the .300 Whisper. The Whisper was created for SpecOps, as a subsonic suppressed heavy bullet.

You need a decent can and a bolt or single shot chambered for 300 Blackout. You need to feed it a 220g bullet, with a suppressed load. Effective range (1000 ft/lbs energy) is right at 100 yards.

We hear coyotes all the time where we are - our next door neighbour is a historic graveyard, which makes it sound pretty spooky. We certainly can't leave the Jack Russell out on his own. A woman up the road lost one of her dogs to coyotes last spring.
