Here in Illinois, at least where I Pheasant hunt, it`s all agricultural farm land and hedgerows. I`ve seen Coyotes almost every time I`ve been hunting for something else, and they`re usually within 50-100 yds. (I havent seen a rabbit in about 5-6 yrs., there, and the Pheasants seem to be less plentiful, too) ) I know I can consistantly hit a Coyote-sized target, out to 100 yds, with my Kimber. I figure it would be a gass, and a challange. I`ve hunted them in the past with a scoped bolt rifle, and calling, but it doesnt seem to work as well as the western boys claim. "Driving" them, like shotgun deerhunting, seems to be most productive around here. I`ll let you know how it goes!
