Good job ! I can remember only two coyotes killed with a handgun, not counting those in traps, and they were about two hours apart while I was mowing. Killed them both with an S&W Kit Gun. It?s amazing how little attention they pay to a farm tractor. Both ran off, but not far with a hollow point through the lungs. I expect that .45 Colt did a number though !

Edit: My memory ain?t too good, because the first one I ever killed was with a .22 Rem-Jet, called in and missed the first running shot, broke his back when he went under a fence. Luck beats skill every time !
