I'v kilt many if coon in 120's. That were put in a box. Triggers down and bent inward, like a pan. Note- we seldom cget coon that will weigh 18#

I asked a similar question a while back. But I was wondering if a coon stuck his head in a mink box, that had a 110, would the 110 kill him. Turns out it's illegal to use 110s for mink in Canada, so I scrapped the idea of using 110s on the mink boxes. Now I will be using at least 120s on my mink boxes.
I would never suggest using a 110 or 120 to specifically target coon. While 110s may dispatch coons sometimes, it's certainly not the right tool for the job. Get yourself some 160s or 220s if you want coon, and save your 110s for water sets targetting mink and muskrats.

Not true. Dry land 160s are what people in Wi use. I'd say 160's are the smallest BG I'd set for coon....and trappers in WI use 160's on dry ground because that's your law, give the choice I'd bet you all would use 220's.

You might get a better answer or more answers if you ask on the wilderness forum.

I know it's a thread for 110 for coon but how bout 110 for marten? They are not legal for marten in Canada. If they were I would still not use them for marten as many fisher are caught in marten sets. And a 110 is not strong enough to provide an efficient humane dispatch on fisher.
The only constant in trapping is change so keep learning.
