Now that looks like it was fun!
How far were the shots?


The God who gave us such a beautiful land, wonderful game, and the sport of hunting is worth knowing.

Good show!


Rod, too.

Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

Congrats!!!! That's some beautiful trophies!


It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

36 gr of H4895 and an 87 gr Hornady SP. I do like the performance of this bullet.

Very cool. I love hunting antelope. I am surprised as I thought you .243 shooters preferred heavier bullets
;\)
I am kinda stuck with with the Barnes 85 TSX in my 6x45 AR15, but I will file your bullet away on my list of possibles. hard to argue with 3 critters down.
