Classic Hornady AMax -vs- Coyote

Coyote tried to play hide-and-seek.
Olly-Oxen-Free.
Pew-Pew!
On another note this proved to be a very pelt friendly round!

Good to see that it keeps you out of the beer joints at night.

"...at night..." That'd get you arrested here. Mind you, so would hunting with that rifle. You need to tell us where you are.
"...proved to be a very pelt friendly round!..." Target/match bullet. That's why A-Max bullets are not for hunting anything but varmints.

He is in Texas and is more than legal. Of course, he stated that explicitly in the video.

Originally, A-MAX were not recommended for hunting by Hornady, not varmints or large game. When I last spoke with a rep in 2016, he acknowledged folks using it for hunting deer and other critters, but still said that it was Hornady's view that these were not hunting bullets. Of course, Hornady has posted hunting success stories with A-MAX bullets, even bears. https://www.hornady.com/team-hornady...018-1537366697

A-MAX is one of the great examples of where design and marketing intent failed to match actual, real world application. A-MAX has proven to be an excellent deer round for a lot of hunters.
