coyotes almost got whiskers and daisy time for war

Yotos don't come anywhere close to the fenced part of my property. They did when we first moved in 4 years ago but a few blasts of air from my.25 Sumatra and they know not to come around. By the way, I 💕 dachshunds! I've only got 1 right now but use to breed them. Had a few champion in the show ring. Not by us but the people who bought them.
 
UPDATE A COYOTE ATTACKED NEIGHBORS KID HE IS IN EMERGENCY ROOM
So here is update I set up thermal on my EVOL and I went to cock gun and some reason gun would not cock , I went inside to take apart \my EVOL 30 to see why it wont stay cocked ,, My neighbor has a few little kids and a playground , When I went inside to work on my Evol , Apparently My neighbors grandmother was taking out a small child to the playground ,and when he went to go on slide he saw coyote , the grandma was on other side of playunit and she didnt see it , the kid ran and sais doggie and it grabbed his leg I ran out the yote ran off but the childs leg was bleeding here is footage of this yote , I just put the therml on my Edgun R5M 22 and loaded it withmy 36 grain MP slugs IM ready now if any shows they toast If gun cocked I would of taken this one out geeze , I feel so bad but when I walked in with my Evol I did not see them outside or I would of told them go in the house , I warned all neighbors now , if you see images of my thermal you can see the coyote was on otherside of playground .

There is no better feeling when being confronted with a challenge to your family, that you do not have to find a solution, as you have already predicted the scenario, acquired the tools and tested the execution. This my friend is the role we are built for; and may your lead fly true on your next encounter!

Well this "man" isn't cut out for it!

 
OK I was working on house 2 days ago and some re siding my shop . , I had my r5m in shop today on tripod before I started work I walked the puppies in river tand went swimming , i saw yote tracks everywhere .Then I shot a few magazines on target to side of yard it was 131 yards away shot about 1 inch group no wind , I was using my mp 36 gr slugs I set it at 924 fps did 10 shot group under 1 moa on a steel target , I had dogs tied to garden and was putting up wood about 2 hours later I heard dog bark and coyotes I saw 2 they were advancing on daisy , I ran in shop and got r5m I shot first one 63 yards and 2nd one about 84 yards both dropped one didnt take one setp the second ran about 10 steps , I also rattled off 2nd shot quick , first shot killed him heart and both lungs 2nd shot hit hi breaking spine , I had my 30 ecol set up with thermal , I took them out with my Edgun R5m this is the 11 coyote this gun shot , But as for the scope It is first 2 kills was a Niteforce 5x25 atacr I t is a SFP I am a ffp scope user I never used a sfp but got one about 1 mo ago just to try out a atacr and a sfp 5x25 , I did not film when skins done I take some pics , If I had used my 30 cal it records hunt this gun was out strictly to shoot a mag or 2 I do this every week qith different guns , btw I had scope on 8x , my second shot would of took him out but because of the sfp I misjudged so shot i aimed for heart hit top of spine ,like I said first time Used a sfp scope for a kill . it happened very quick , I do hope one of them is one which bit my neighbors kids leg
Prior on this r4m I got coyotes using my Schmidt bender 5x26 , a pulsar 450 nv , tangent theta 3x15 and a atn 5x50 thermal , It is a great set up f for a ,22 yote gun , I have 5 mags loaded on gun , I juat prefer the 30 cal with 66 gr but its old reliable to me edguns never fail
 
@jwrabbit123 Oh yea. I knew this was coming. Been waiting on it. Good shooting Lou. Keep knocking them down.
Lou you are a great shot! I'm no good at guessing where the heart is on coons and skunks, so stick to head shots. They have all kinds of positions and with all that long fur hard to tell where the real body outline is. The heart and brain are about the same size, but the brain is easier to locate. However the head is more likely to suddenly move as you squeeze off the shot.
