are y'all not allowed to use lights or rifles at night?... 

even with a 10ga that's still a long shot... with the right shot/choke combination it is do able...  do a bunch of testing as temps and humidity will have great affect/effect {choose the correct one} on the pattern, especially at those distances...  the "dead coyote" ammo is supposed to be good but I'd also look around, in the old Mom and Pop gun shops for some of the Federal Premium or equivalent in copper plated BB, B or T shot, and of course the #4 buckshot loads...

did you get the auto loader or the pump?... I have a pump from back in the days of water fowl hunting, they are shooters... good luck on your trials and travels with the "big gun"...   :biggrin:
