204 caliber vs coyote

[fishmounter]

Has anyone tried out the Ruger 204 40 grain Hornady V-Max on coyote? Wondering how they do on knock down power, I do know they leave no pelt damage.

they will kill them if thats what your after. Pelt damage will occur. But some rifles don't shoot those 40 gr bullets well so before you buy lots of them shoot a few to see if they group.

Berger bullets or noslers work best. I do shoot the 32gr noslers and they have a slightly thicker jacket and seem to be very deadly and good on fur, but nothing is better than my 35gr berger handloads. Deadly and can't tell where you shoot them

I have the 204 upper for my DPMS AR!! Crazy gun to say the least I cant complain about knockdown power but then again my longest shot with it would be under 200.... dead on impact
