I got a decent buck in 2009 and wanted to make sure we got him a decent buck on this trip (his first for antelope). We started hunting on Sunday afternoon and had all the tags filled by Monday afternoon. His goats were taken with a Kleingunther K-15 Deluxe .270 Weatherby Mag launching a Sierra 140gr SPBT at 3200fps. The buck at 215yds and the doe at 208yds. I was using The Lil'Monster (a custom XP-100 7mmx270WSM from Allen Precision Shooting in Montana. It has a HS Precision stock, Lilja barrel, Holland lug, DE brake, M-16 extracted, fully blueprinted). It shoots 162 Hornady A-Max's at 2825fps. My doe were taken at 406yds and 325yds. The link below has pics from my 2009 trip with Ernie and the trip I just got back from.

I was mainly wondering about access. BullElk Hunter (Gerry)HHI #2933 And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, whom shall I send and who will go for us? And I said: Here am I, send me!(Is. 6:8)

I sure wish I could have been there but it just wasn't in the stars this year. I'm saving my change starting now for next year, no matter what fuel costs. I can sleep in the back of my truck or a tent. Glad you guys tagged out. It is starting deer season here and I'm going to try and fill a few tags.
