[QUOTE="chav0_12, post: 2385540, member: 29765"] I’ve always taken my 243 WSSM. This next year it might be the 6.5 Creed or the 28 Nosler. Heck, I might just have all of them in the truck and decide when it’s time. Long shots are certainly possible on antelope but so are close shots. The last one I killed was maybe 50 yards. That same day I took a shot at 360ish, I think. Antelope can be difficult to get close to but they can also be easy to get close to. You don’t necessarily need to take 600 yard shots on them, but you probably can. Like someone else said, a guide for antelope is hardly necessary. You’ll probably drive roads and glass until you find some, then make a stalk using the little bit of terrain as your cover. All you need to do to get close is know where they are, keep the wind in your favor, and stay in the lowest spots you can, you might go a mile out of your way but it’ll be worth it. [/QUOTE]
