Calhoon 20 Calibre Bullets
Has anyone tried either the 33 or 39 grain double hollow point Calhoon bullets on coyotes? If you did, what was the fur damage like?

Re: Calhoon 20 Calibre Bullets
Wow, I can't believe no one on here has tried the Calhoons. Several years ago my friend shot the 22 cal. ones on p-dogs and he said they were very explosive and accurate. But he has never tried the 20 cals.
I guess you could phone Calhoon. In the past I've spoken to them and they seemed like "straight shooters". I think they would tell you if a particular bullet was designed to be explosive or not.

If not for my forgetful nature remembering things would be no problem at all.

I just tuned my Encore trigger to 2 1/2 lbs. Thanks to a Bellm spring. I loaded some 40gr, V-Maxs' last night and I'm gonna shoot (sight it in) Saturday morning. Maybe I can find a crow, sparrow or something, so get a confirmed kill with my .204 Encore rifle.
I have only shot Calhoon bullets in my .19 Calhoon. They work great for me.
