Stevens 200 enters the world of cast boolits.

My Stevens 200 in 30-06 finally got to devour some cast boolits today.
That rifle has been a rattlesnake since I bought it. Easy to handle and scary accurate with most of the loads I have put together.
Today I put together some 150 grain Lee mold boolits over some 2400 powder. Three shots into about an inch at 100 yards off of the bench.
I'd say for a coyote/plinking load, I am done with that one.

Very good, now time to go "proof" it on a song dog!

That is the plan. My sister in law has a few on her property that are getting pretty cheeky. My niece was mowing the back pasture and one trotted 20 yards away beside her. This is not acceptable behavior for the livestock.

I did not see the mix.. If this is 50-50 through the chest from any angle. If this is a hard mix through a shoulder. Them Coy's are tough buggers and will absorb alot of lead unless the boolit does some nasty things inside.
