This week, we’re taking a closer look at a classic—the Sauer 100 Classic XT. It’s a bolt-action centerfire repeater made by J.P. Sauer & Sohn of Germany, a company founded in 1751. The rifle is available chambered in .222 Remington, .223 Remington, .243 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5x55, .270 Winchester, .308 Winchester, 7mm Remington Magnum and .300 Winchester Magnum.

Overall, the Sauer 100 Classic XT is light, responsive and easy to handle. Learn more about it in the video embedded above, hosted by Editor in Chief J. Scott Olmsted. MSRP: $699; sauer.de/us.

Coyote Tactics: Stay Flexible

The successful hunters I know do not get hung up on one tactic. They constantly float between strategies in an ever-changing hunting environment. Quite simply, they’re flexible. I take that improvising nature to heart even for coyotes, particularly when they shun my calls for whatever reason. When that occurs, I continue the hunt, but modify my strategy to fit the scenario.
