I was shooting a 17 fireball Rem. CDL with a custom barrel and a neiko Stearling scope. The loads were 18 grains of 10X Powder driving a 27 grain Kindler gold. I have yet to even have a Coyote even move after being hit with this load they just crumple Kerry

Mine was a Dtech 243 wssm sum barrel, jewell trigger, Shepherd scope. It's my regular "go to" predator rifle and the only one I brought with me. Does the job on coyotes and (unlike the 17s ) will shatter eggs too (when I can hit them ).

nmleon,
Currently I've got a Remington 700 at the gunsmith waiting for a Shilen SS barrel. It's intended for fox and bobcats. Maybe it will work on eggs too.

The quality of the rifle (within reason) will be taken out of the next competition. Shooting ability will be greatly emphasized over rifle ability. If you have a 1 MOA rifle and can shoot, you stand a good chance to be competitive. The rules will be posted later today.

I was using about as bone stock of a rifle as possible.
Remington 700VS in 223 with a Leupold VXIII 4.5-14 50mm. The only modification to the gun was the wrapped on camo stuff! I definitely need to tune the trigger a bit, its great on yotes.. but definitely not Minute of Egg
