What the heck happened? I can't believe that everyone has something more important to do than lob bullets at postcards. :shock:

This looks like a fun venture with the RARR. I bought it for coyotes, but found I can learn form you guys. The bullets I ordered before I found this site are Out Law State 220 grainers. The problem is this rifle will not strike the CCI450's hard enough to ignite them. Anyone have the solution so I can begin shooting at post cards instead of coyotes?

I finally managed to call one in. The coyote was 300yds away on a ridge, The wind started to blow in the wrong direction and he paused and stared in my direction. He then took off and stopped under a tree at 360yds. I was so excited I took the shot and I made contact. He did some flips and turns and then strolled off, I spent 2 hours looking for it but the grass was so tall I couldnt follow him. Live and learn as I had 29 more rounds in the magazine and I should have taken another shot when he was still visable.

16inch suppressed aero pression bush pig.
Same load as last time 208gr hornady A Max with 8.6gr 2205 adi Cci small rifle magnum primer.
2-7x35 vortex and better rest is the only difference.
I used my ute hood, the kids booster seat and a coat as my rest this time.
Cross wind was I'm thinking why I had the flier to the right.
