Zeroed my .22lr for 75 yds for fox shooting.If i use .22lr mini mags could i kill at a max of 100 yds?
well if your shooting foxes your going to want a more powerful ammo like the cci stinger which is much more powerful than cci minimags and can punch a neat little hole right through him with basically no pelt damage but if you want a bullet that will expand has the same energy as the stinger and doesent leave an exit hole try cci 32 grain segmented hollowpoint the only flaw with this bullet is that it will leave a slightly bigger entry hole(but still its like half the size of a 17 hmr) but the good part is no exit wound and i used the stingers to kill a fox last night at 100 yards without any twitching or after shot movement and another fox with the segmented hollow point at roughly 75 yards with no pelt damage it actually looked like it got stabbed with a pen and the fox shot with the stingers had a slightly smaller hole but an exit wound the size of a .243 caliber size bullet so i guess i would reccomend the segmented hollowpoint for shorter range and the stingers for long range(out to about 150 yards cleanly and past that youve got a runner and at 200 dont even try it it will only wound him and probably kill him from lead poisoning a month later which is cruel and awful)
