[QUOTE="younggun, post: 428153, member: 26865"] Mine was antelope hunting out here in colorado. We saw a small group of antelope at about 700 yds but at the time that was far outside of the range i could hit one, so we circled back around the other side of a ridge and planned to come up around 300 yds away from them. So we get to exactly where we wanted and went back up over the ridge to find the antelope had circled around too. so quite quickly the 300 yd get prone and wait for the right moment shot became a 60 yd oh s*** they are running full tilt broadside to us. I pulled up my 270 for a quick off hand shot and i used the old shotgun trick of starting by aiming at their hind quarters and following through to in front of it. i pulled off the shot aiming about 6 inches in front of her nose (full tilt for an antelope is aprox. 50mph). the bullet went right through the boiler room and she dropped mid stride.
