Thanks for the welcome. Its a Heritage .22 Mag, and this was actually the first time I took it on a hunt. I just wanted something lightweight and it fit the bill. Last Saturday I took the coyote in Rockbridge County using a Circe call and a cheap squeaker. Previously, I hadn't had much luck in that area. I had heard coyotes and seen sign but none would respond to the calls. This one came running for the distress call and the magnum round put it down. Now I take the pistol with me every time as a second string gun.
