Coyotes, though? They can get it as far as I’m concerned. If it’s not majestic enough for a gas station T-shirt, then good riddance.
If you feel the same way – or antithetical toward any other varmint species – then you’ve just found your next 223 Rem hunting ammo. Remington UMC is made in America, nothing very fancy, and loaded with the lightweight jacketed hollow points that send unmerchandisable critters to Hades.
This round’s JHP is designed for expansion and fragmentation. That plus its 45 grain weight makes it a suboptimal ally during a home invasion, but right on the money for varmint hunting. Remington drew the bullet’s 3,300 fps muzzle velocity and 0.173 G1 BC with the aid of a 24” barrel. Here’s our projected ballistic data based on that info:
