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?

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.

i have used the 33 calhoons on turtles and sparows very explosive!
but never on coyotes

Thats my kinda varmint huntin'. Don't forget about starlings and pigeons.
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.

I tried the 33 gr calhoons did not like them much
for accuracy .ended up trading for 35 berger.
Love his 37 gr hp in my hornet though.
