Has anyone heard of a "Stinger" in regards to ammunition. Someone told me that they use this because it's non-leathal and stings under the skin causing the coon to leave the tree?

OK I'll be the bad guy on this one. Why do you want to sting a coon to make it come out of the tree? Does a pointer have to fight a quail? Does a lab have to fight a duck? No!!! So why the hell do people think a hound has to fight a coon? If you have to shoot one out then be respectful and try for a clean kill. Give your dog plenty of praise and they will be just fine.

Stinger is a bad term to use cause people will get them confused with CCI's Stinger bullet. You should have said stunner or less lethal bullets. Yes I have used them and reloaded them. The ony draw back is I am not aware of any .22 rimfire rubber bullets available. I do not think even if they were available that they would phase a coon. But I will tell you this if you use them in .38 special or a .357 magnum casing they will knock about anything silly other than maybe a grizzly bear. I have loaded them in my .44 magnum but never really shot any animals with them. But I honestly believe this would work great to get a good coon fight for youngs dogs. Call me a fool but I always like to give younger dogs in training a good coon fight once in a while to light the fire.
