[QUOTE="britz, post: 167458, member: 7865"] I am all for having an accurate rifle over a fast one, but you can get alot more out of your .308 than that. If you have time, I would work up a load using a balistic tip or a 168 SMK and try to get a little more velocity out of that rig. You are right that you will be fighting the wind. I've never hunted Antalope (just want to be honest), but if I was going on a trip, I would have 3 or 4 drop charts made up with various wind conditions and keep them on your person. If you are shooting at 600 yards, you should be able to take a few more seconds to consult your other drop charts IMO. good luck, Mark. [/QUOTE]
