Silenced doesn’t help unless a subsonic round is used. A 300 blackout loaded very light with a silencer is still a very loud round. A .22 LR on the other hand will not be heard by the neighbors and if well scoped will do the job just as well. Even better if a bone of body mass is missed since a .223 will breeze right through a coyote without picking up a dent.
Yes. You can suppress a firearm, you can even make it very quite, but you cannot silence it. A “silencer” is a movie fiction item.
Agreed, I harvest 5, or more coyotes every winter, right in my barnyard. Ruger 10/22 is my weapon of choice.
