One hunt I'd like to do is mountain lion.


The 45 Colt for antelope sounds very interesting since I think of antelope as a long range shot proposition. Do you get in close, have a long barreled and scoped 45 Colt, or what?

I have never hunted antelope and my 45 Colt is a 4.62" and I use it for up close hunting. I wouldn't mind a 7.5" SBH Hunter in 45 Colt.
