I agree with "addicted2fishin". The entry hole is small and if you hit mid-body there is rarely an exit hole. We've shot several coyotes (me and friends) and have NEVER had one get up and run away like "mistercompletely" indicated. I like to let him get downrange of me about 150 yards and I'll hit him in the a** with a 17 and then we'll see if he gets up and runs or drops like a rock. I bet its the latter! LOL Anyway, up here in Rich Co. the .17 has been a good coyote gun and its not so damn loud like a 22-250 or 220 swift or 204 Ruger.
