New Mexico Antelope Hunt Recap/Antelope Rifle build

That was a great write-up and even nicer buck! That rifle though, it's awful. I happen to live in New Mexico and it only seems fitting to bury that gun in the same area as that buck inhabited. I'll do you a favor and dispose of it properly and more importantly, discreetly.

I'll PM you the necessary shipping information shortly...

If you got the meat cooled quickly, I bet he eats good even though he's he's toad. Enjoy!!!
 
It's great to go through the build process, work up a load, and then prove it in the field with a trophy like that !!! Good work and congrats !!
 
great write up!! I like how you included the build through the hunt.. congrats on the antelope too!!
 
Great buck. Nice looking gun...
Very nice buck (not that my opinion is valid—total of 1 P-H harvested, much smaller & 30 yrs ago. Traveled to MT from AK for that hunt). Really enjoyed the rifle, cartridge, load development & hunt details, as well. Appreciate you taking the time.
 
Nice job and great paint on your rifle. My son and I got 2 in NM this yr. Great fun. I have a 243 AI that needs painting btw.............LOL
