[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 588288, member: 30902"] I've taken them with .220 swift (2) .243 (6 including my first at the age of 11) 7mm Rem (6), and 3 with my 7mm STW. I was just speaking to the 6.5's and trying to figure out why he'd go for the slower of the two. A deer or antelope just walking along at a normal rate can move a half body length or more in one second so I consider flight time to be a pretty big consideration as I don't get many opportunities, especially on antelope with them being dead still unless I'm set up on their bedding location when the sun comes up.
