    Father and son antelope hunt Wyoming!!

    We did a hotel, but you can camp just about anywhere on blm land for 14 days. The rifles you mentioned are perfect for antelope. I shoot one rifle and that is a 300 win mag for everything. I have confidence with it and that s what you want.

    Antelope buck size guess?

    Thanks guys we werent expecting to find dandys or get one but we were curious to see. I guesss the taxidermist is a SCI certified scorer and said they thought it would for sure qualify for bronze. Both horns are the same length, and have good mass. My dad used that system and came up with 74 net...

    Hornady sst superperformence issues??

    These travel at around 3100 fps and thats what I wondered is that its such a hot bullet at only 100 yards that it hit the ribs and just fragmented because the damage to the front shoulder ribs and the lungs was unreal. I have never seen anything like that before. I definitely wont use them again...

    Hello all, has anyone had issues with the hornady superperformance sst bullets?? I know i was shooting a 300 win mag with 180 grains on antelope but thats the grain bullet my 300 win mag likes and I thought for long range it would perform well.

    Need some help on choices M1, M2 or Cds dials for leupold?

    Ok its making sense now, so I will get the 4.5 14x 40 long range with BC reticle and the CDS. I can use the BC hash marks out to 500 yards and if I need to shoot past that range, I can adjust CDS for further shots correct?lightbulb If thats the case I agree that sounds better, because I wont...

    Need some help on choices M1, M2 or Cds dials for leupold?

    retiredcpo, That is what I looked and here is probably a silly question, but if you have the BC reticle dont you just use the hash marks for different ranges(holdover) or is there marks for windage? If so would the cds dial be for windage or is it for elevation and do you make the adjustment...

    Need some help on choices M1, M2 or Cds dials for leupold?

    Hello All, ok I am a newbie to the long range thing and I dont want to waste money on the wrong equipment. I am confused on which product to go with the M1, M2, or Cds dials for either just elevation or both windage and elevation? I am shooting a 300 win mag floated barrel, 2.5 pound trigger...
