I dont have a .22 mag yet
I am going to be buying either a .22 mag or 17HMR around xmas but until then My night time gun for Fox hunting is going to be my 12Ga 11-87 and My .22 Marlin 25N The marlin is absolutly accurate and I know under 50 yards the bullet will hit EXACTLY where I aim
most of the spots I hunt I call in Fox and coon
I have killed fox and coon with my Ruger MKIII so I know a .22 will kill them.
But what is the optimum Fox and coon aiming point with the .22 LR
I am figuring head only shots but with the 40 grain velociter hollow points is it a safe shot aiming for vitals?
Not trying to start a big debate here telling me to use a bigger gun ETC.. a buddy of mine goes with me alot and he uses the 12 ga since he doesnt have a gun so I will be behind the rimfire
