5 coyotes down with thermal

Landowner I kill hogs for texted me with a coyote problem. High humidity made for bad thermal conditions but it worked out well... https://youtu.be/fuj0HwIUGMA

What ranges were those at? It appears you can adjust the magnification, so it was a bit hard for me to tell, the first two looked like 75-100yards and the others about 150???
Nice shooting.

Thanks DNS!
Doofus- probably 50-100 for the shooting. Maybe a little past 100 on a couple of the runners but I try to let em come in close for a guaranteed kill.

Haha! Love the thermal videos, thanks for posting, love it when you guys post this stuff.

You calling them in? Didn't hear a caller but they seemed to be coming.

120 grain SST 12.5" ARP upper from Eric at Blackstone Arms. Sig Sauer 762 titanium QD suppressor. Reap-IR thermal from Cliff at Third a coast Thermal.
I had opened a bucked of very stinky ripe soured corn mixed with rotten food that the seemed to like the smell of. I also had a hand call that I used to draw in a couple of them. Thanks!!
