Kyle shot this Gemsbok with a 25 Creedmoor running a 24" Brux barrel, 1-7TR, running a MV of 3011 FPS. At a distance of 160 yards the bullet broke shoulder at the point of impact and fully exited the opposite shoulder. The Gemsbok ran 10 yards and dropped.
Congratulations Kyle and thanks for sharing your hunt and field report.
 
Great trophy! Beautiful rifle! Congrats on a successful hunt! Lots of people would say that is too small a bullet and cartridge for that notoriously tough animal. Well done.
 
i think they are one of the best looking animals in africa, i have taken two. both with a 300 win mag with 180gr bullets running 3000 fps.
