[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 355503, member: 18849"] trebark, its a 25-06 SBruce, I was afraid that you would say that about the range finder....We had a pretty tough year at work and were down to four days a week.....My hunting trip budget is tight....But I really want to get that first 1/4 mile antelope....I have a friend with a real good one...I might try to borrow it..... My longest shot back home here in MN and WI is 405 yards with the Rem 25-06....Ranged with known landmarks and paced after the shot....But I am just entering into this science of LRH.....I am confident in my abilities with the Savage at least to 500 yards (that is as far as I have shot it)...If I do my part right it will group 4" and under at that range...I am hoping under perfect conditions it will do around 2 or three, but I haven't done that yet..... I was thinking A27, I hunted there in 2007 and took my first lope with my Rem 700 25-06.....My youngest son Mike also took his first mulie a nice 3x3 and a lope doe.....So I have an idea where to go....Unless you have any good suggestions for me...I like the early Oct. hunt because there is a less of chance of weather upsetting the apple cart......My middle son John and I hunted south of Douglas in 2008....The Oct 10-11 snow storm put a damper on our hunt....I did find a decent goat on Oct 10 (A30) antelope opener to put in the freezer....We scouted the next week in the snow/mud for the 15th deer opener and did manage to find a 3x3 John's first mulie and I got lucky the next day on a smaller 4x4....But public land was rather hard to find because of the road conditions.....I ate my cow elk tag because we couldn't get close to the area in the Laramie Peaks where we planned the hunt.....Oh well, live and learn..... Where are you located in the Thunder Basin, if I may ask? Thanks, Randy [/QUOTE]
