The Nikon Coyote Special Scope – Specialized Optics for Coyote Hunting

The recent trend coyote hunting in the United States has exploded with the increasing numbers of the coyotes themselves. The taking of cats and dogs and reduction in population of deer, turkeys and other species is an headache caused by the larger numbers in the coyote population. Many states have very long hunting seasons for coyote with no bag limit in an effort to control this varmints population increase.

Coyotes are extremely clever predators and provide the hunter a new and exciting hunting experience. They have keen vision, keen hearing and scent detection. Hunters need to attract coyotes to come to him because they are too hard to stalk. Hunters accomplish this usually by using audible calls that simulate a dying rabbit or another coyote.Coyotes can be clever and difficult to get within shooting range. If the hunter is a good caller and he is lucky, he may get a chance. Getting off a good shot at a coyote is one of the rewarding challenges a hunter can experience.

In order to help meet the unique challenges of coyote hunting, Nikon made the Nikon Coyote scopes. It is a Nikon Buckmaster with a special Bullet Drop Compensating (BDC) reticle, available camo finishes, and an anti-reflective device (ARD).

The Bullet Drop Compensating reticle is calibrated {to|for} the .223, 55 grain round sighted in at 100 yards or the 22-250, 55 grain bullet sighted in at 200 yards. The function of the BDC reticle is to accurately place shots beyond the range that you sighted your rifle in at. The BDC holdover reference circles are large, that lets you to track the coyote accurately even as it continues to trot.

The Nikon Coyote scopes can be ordered in matte black or 2 camo finishes. The camo will match some of the new camo varmint rifles for sale on the market, and when used with full body camo it will foil the ability of a coyote to spot the hunter. Matching camo rings are also for sale.

The ARD screws directly onto the objective bell of the scope. It features a honey-comb pattern that greatly reduces glare off the objective lens that could spook a coyote. The cool part of it is the shooter cannot see the ARD when viewing through the scope. The shooter always has a clear field of view.

The Nikon Coyote Special scopes come in 3-9x40mm and 4.5-14x40mm. For shots under 200 yards the 3-9x40mm will be fine. For shots at 200 yards or longer the 4.5-14x40mm will be the better choice.
