I killed this male at 25 yards on the 2nd stand this morning. Seems to be pretty healthy but starting to rub.

Glad you got him.
Nice looking gun and great camo.

I saw one yesterday while unrolling hay out in neighbors field. It was unconcerned, but I couldn't fire as I was right in line with neighbors house. I couldn't chance a ricochet off the woven wire fence....So.
I tried to move Up A bit Laterally for clear shot, but he started jogging away. Missed a jogging Coyote at 180. I will get him yet.

Awesome man! You just using hand calls? And what load you running in your shotgun?
I was using hand calls and 3 inch 4buck for the load.
Glad you got him.

That camo on the Mossy 835 is just a rattle can job I did to knock down the glare from the blued steel. It won't win any beauty contests. 🤣

Nice 835 and coyote. What choke you using with that #4 buck? I've read where many people are using turkey chokes with buckshot loads now even though back in the day anyone would tell you not to.

The choke is a Kicks Buck Kicker choke. But to tell the truth I can't see a big difference from the factory choke. I've patterned a turkey choke in the past but it blows up the patterns. With buckshot a full choke is probably as tight as you need to go and maybe a light full or modified. Depends on your gun and load. YMMV.
