considering the twist rate and the barrel length of the Handi rifle and shooting coyotes foxes etc. in Louisiana... across fields... and down power lines.... what weight bullets will shoot well and kill well ? what factory fodder and what brand bullets for reloads will work best.
thanks

I've used 30gr bergers, 32gr v-max, 35gr bergers, 40gr vmax they all grouped great in my NEF, but not to the same poa, settled on the 30gr bergers and the 32gr v-maxs for the most part, they both shot to the same poa, if I was going to make a real habit of killin coyotes I'd opt for the 35gr bergers if your rifle can get a decent group with them!

My buddy's NEF loves the 40 gr Bergers.
