I killed one last week on my back porch with my pellet rifle. Sheridan 20 cal, 7 pumps, right between the eyes. I think he kicked twice.

You will need more than one shot. I point-blanked one with a .22 caliber pellet rifle with a cro-mag pellet and it wasn't enough to kill it. I felt like shite about it. I finished it off with a baseball bat.

(I killed it because it was going after my dog. Otherwise I would have left it alone)

Anyhow... even the bat wasn't an instakill. Maybe I just had a tough coon. My advice: Sledge it or 9mm it.
