I think a 50-90 leaves too big a hole in the hide, is to big a hole to sew and wouldn't own one, on the other hand a 45-110 is about perfect with 510 grain NEI. It gives coyote hunting a whole new outlook.

You could get in trouble (over there) espousing such things. They might not realize that you are just pulling our leg.

HEHEHEHE I think my Tazer and a housecat would still make one hell of a coyote call. 50k volts administered in 5 second jolts intermittantly. Im sure there would be some great calling noises and action.
I went jogging through a swamp with a client a week ago tonight. I was trying to get close enough to him to see what kind of sounds he made.
I got him located again today and we are going to let him settle in. Going to get him next week, and after making me run like that, hes gonna get a shockin. Maybe I should record it?

Leonard, I'd pull your chain if I thought I could get away with it . My calling partner uses a 1886 Winchester in 45-90 and I call with a Shilo Sharps 45-110 rested on buffalo sticks.Many's a coyote hide that got sold at a rendezvous with a 45 caliber hole in it. We have a good black powder market for our hides and a small hole doesn't seem to bother our customers much. On the positive side I haven't had a shoulder point bullet blow up with that rig. I couldn't be more serious.

Oh, okay, my error. I have seen you post on another board, so I figured you must use a 17?
Good hunting. LB

Other than a good quality pellet rifle, I will never own a .17 caliber.
