[QUOTE="Crockett12, post: 1709314, member: 35100"] I should have also said -- not all factory rifles are capable of the accuracy necessary to place a bullet in the fatal area of an antelope further than 200 or 300 yards -- so you need to practice at those ranges before you hunt -- to see if the rifle/caliber you choose is capable of the necessary accuracy! Best case scenario is about a 6 inch circle at those ranges. Anything bigger is going to possibly wound the animal! By the way -- you can't go wrong with either caliber but I'd lean towards the 25-06! [/QUOTE]
