[QUOTE="JOSE A. MARINE, post: 290283, member: 9159"] last year was my first lope hunt, I was using my 300 wsm because I later had a mule deer/elk combination hunt. my impression, the antelope I shot, was hit on the rearest rib and the bullet exited on the oposite shoulder, bullets were nosler accubond. the deer ran for more than 200 yards before collapse. though antelopes seem fragile, I think quite the oposite. everyone on my hunting party who took antelope, took two shots to bring them down. yes, you can go with your 7wsm and I think its one of the best cartridge available. but the question now arises, are you eating the goat? would I go with a 7wsm and balistic tips, yes and the heavier the better. in an ideal world, you would be able to shoot an antelope perfectly broadside, standing still, with the wind in your favor, but thats not always true.
