[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1887089, member: 14204"] I have harvested plenty of antelopes from AZ, NM, and MT ranging from <100 yards to >400 yards with various bullet types and weights from .264 (up to 140 thus far), .277 (up to 175), .308 (up to 215), and .338 (225 NABs) caliber and chamberings, so no it is not over-powered. The .300 WM remains my go-to chambering for antelope to elk size game up to 1K yards. Stick to the rifle set-up's and your (please take no offense) limitations and you'll be just fine. Shot placement and the "NUT" behind the trigger remains the biggest factors in successfully harvesting your game. Good luck and happy safe hunting. [/QUOTE]
