I've been hearing good things about this bullet for a while now. As usual, I'm late to the party but decided to try some.SUPER accurate bullet in my .223s and it looks like a good bet for varmints. Tried some on my last hog hunt with great results ( head shots of course...)Wondering how they do on coyotes...fur friendly or not? Tell me your experiences on anything with these bullets...

I haven't tried them but fur friendly for yotes is probably not relevant now days.
I haven't sold a yote hide in 4 years.
None of the fur buyers want them.
At least by me.....maybe out west ?

What do you normally load in your 223. I use 50gn v-max. Might have to try a box.

I normally load the 55 Vmax in the .223, and I use the 50 Vmax in my .222 I tried the 53 for the tad bit higher BC because I have one rifle I play with out to 500 yards. You're right about the fur, but I occasionally shoot something I want to get tanned for my own use. I'm in Montana and prices on coyotes-even the pale Montanas- are pretty sad these days.
