We had a real problem here a few years ago. Six of us that join all went together and hired a trapper. We divided the fee among all of us ($6000/6=$1000 each) for a year. He caught 36 the first month. Over 200 that winter. Money well spent. Still get a few loners come in but most of us 'pack' when we go out to check stock.

Best 'friend' I have found of late is a Colt HBAR 5.56 mm {ban legal AR15/M16 frame, bought pre ban clips; course now the ban is no more). I use 2-30 round banana clips taped back to back loading every 4th shell a tracer. Nice on long shots (over 300 yards) to walk your fire stream to them. I got 6 last year with it, 1 with the .270.

Before the trapper we called them in, but couldnt do enough damage to have a real effect. Now I've 'heard tell' that a tape of a coyote pup in a steel trap will bring them in at night and 'heard' that a red lens head lamp will help you take your shot. Of course that would be of questionable legality in some jurisdictions. If you choose to call with this kind of tape I'd think a shotgun would be an armament of choice, preferrably with #4 shot or larger in 3" magnums. Because I 'think' you might call one almost in your lap.
