Not too bad so far, probably get to hunt one more time before Christmas. Hunting with my 18" Monster barrel shooting Hornady ELD-M using a Athlon Helos scope and Larue MBT.

Shot at 40 yards, ran about 20 yards.

Coyote, have several on camera with a black coat, probably all related, there's an older one with 3 legs.

There was a regular color coyote running with him but took off when I started shooting, stopped about 300 yards out but I missed, was shooting off hand without a rest.

Very nice, I hunted w/my GRENDEL this year and got a little muley, would love to get a bobcat.
I thought about selling my weapons back to the government, but after a thorough background check it was determined that the buyer has a long history of violence and is mentally unstable. Therefore could not pass NICS.

It did good for me, did a number of the heart and lungs of the whitetail and provided a good blood trail.

The bobcat wasn't really big enough for full expansion, which is probably good as it hopefully didn't do to much damage to the hide.
