[QUOTE="warboar21, post: 2547343, member: 88146"] If you are comfortable with your 6.5CM than I say use it. I have used a 25-06 and a 7 Rem mag. The 7 was more gun than needed but I was having issues with the 243 I had intended on using and had the 7mm as my back up since it was the only other rifle I had what I felt a good long range load worked up. The 7 Mag destroyed both front shoulders and that means almost half the edible meat on the goat. Slight gust of wind was all it took to push the bullet from lung shot to shoulder in 450yds. I've not used a guide on either one of my Antelope hunts but neither one of my Antelope were Boone & Crocket class animals. But they did make it in the "Spoon & Crockpot" record book for some of the best tasting game meat i've eaten. [/QUOTE]
