Wow thats a heck of a distance for a 32 gr to drop a coyote. You must have awesome shot placement! :D

Nice shot! It's hard to see that kind of distance in my area, much less make that kind of shot.

That is a nice long shot. Congratulations! :D

I can only assume that the Kimber treats you well re accuracy?

I Think this confirms it for those who don't think the 204 is good enough. 415 yrds with a 32gr bullet. Dead coyote. Nice shooting!
