[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 1180618, member: 711"] Unless your coyotes are pretty close, you probably aren't going to like the results. I have a #4 buck load (I think #4 is .25) which will do 'em in at about 60 yards, but I don't think the "T" will do any better, even benig the heavy non-toxic stuff. I don't know if it's tungsten of bismuth, but even with tungsten, you aren't going to get a lot of range with a shotgun. The one I killed with the #4s was a target of opportunity on a sandhill crane hunt several years ago. He was at about 60 yards, and it laid him down very convincingly, but I wouldn't want to push it more than maybe another 10 yards. That load is an ounce and a half of hard lead 4 buck--32 pellets in a 2 3/4 inch AA case. Goes a little over 1200 fps and kills cranes very dead. CB [/QUOTE]
