Wanted to see if anyone has used these bullets or similar for coyotes?

I put together a 6mm Creedmoor, 7.5tw, Bartlien, and it hammers with these 105’s. Killed 2 antelope with them this fall, and I was very happy with performance. Perfect 1-1.5” exit holes. But have yet to try them on dogs and was wondering if anyone else has?

I shoot a 105amax out of a .243AI at around 3200fps. It is a hammer on coyotes. I try to shoot them in soft spots (not in the shoulder) and it doesn’t tear them up too bad.

105 Berger’s out of a 6BR. 50 yards or 500 same result.

Anyone else?

I used to run a 243 barrel on my AXMC for night hunting with 105 hybrids just shy of 3150fps. They’re very destructive within 200 yards at those velocities. You can forget about keeping any hides, they’re like little grenades going off. 200 yards and out they aren’t so bad though but most of my shots were within 200 yards so I stopped using them.

They work great on deer sized game and up though.

Gotcha thanks. I recently got my .243 with a differnt barrel put on. The barrel is a 1 in 8 twist. Been thinking about trying some 105 Berger Hybrid in it. Just curious on what they do to a coyote. I don’t care if it blows up fur I just don’t want it to pencil thru them and they run off

Yeah that won’t be a problem, it makes them very dead.
