Coyote Fever patterns
Shot the Coyote Fever 12ga 3” loads Friday
1.5oz at 1400+ fps with #3 tss shot
50 yards then 90 yards
Gun used is a Remington Versamax with a Indiancreek.710 choke
My buddy Neal’s gun and he did the shooting. When we shot the 90 yard pattern I held the 50 next to it. Asked him if a coyote would escape either. He was shocked and said that’s a crazy 90 yard pattern and would flatten a coyote. The targets were 3 foot tall by 4’ wide

Re: Coyote Fever patterns
That looks like a perforated coyote
How much drop did the center of the 90yd pattern have compared to 50

Re: Coyote Fever patterns
The 50 yard he aimed dead center. We both think he pulled the shot as it mostly was on the left side of the cardboard
90 yards he aimed about the same spot. I would’ve aimed a foot higher than the 50 yard pattern.

Re: Coyote Fever patterns
I’ve shot some crazy k es at 100. No difference in 90 to 100 in my eyes. It’s a mean one. He’s gonna crush them
Re: Coyote Fever patterns
I haven't shot tss at that speed
in a 28" barrel, #8 tss at 1150 fps the center of the 10" dropped 5-6 inches at 60yds from being sighted in dead on at 40yds
your load with the larger pellet and faster fps I would think should be a little flatter, 12 inches from 50 to 90 is probably pretty close
did you count pellets in a 10" or 12" for an idea of whats hitting the heart/lung area?
It looks deadly

Re: Coyote Fever patterns
I haven’t counted them. I’m so busy now and need to shoot a ton of patterns to have ready for the convention for the turkey ammo now, I’ll probably shoot and then start counting after I’m all done.crow wrote: ↑January 18th, 2022, 4:24 pm

Re: Coyote Fever patterns
I got some coyote fever #2s in a couple weeks ago and was blow away at the pattern! I shot 3 different chokes at 50 yards and settled on my Kicks HF full. I can't wait to roll some dogs. I need to shoot a pattern farther out to see what they will do.

90-100 yard patterns will be nice also

Re: Coyote Fever patterns
I will set one at 100 and see what it does! Thanks again!
Re: Coyote Fever patterns
That only needs a coyote standing in the way. Good pattern.
