So I drew the once in a lifetime tag in NM this year. Right now I am planning on taking a .300 win mag with a .280 AI as a backup. Both shoot great out beyond 1000- the win mag with 215 burgers, and the 280 AI with 162 ELD-X.
Ive personally never killed an oryx but have heard they are tough. I am curious what you guys think on where to shoot them and what you guys think about shooting them at 800-1000 yards? Shooting that distance isn't a problem for me but I'm trying to decide where I should be shooting them for effective killing, and then based on that what kind of energy I am going to need. Will probably base my max effective distance on those answers.
What do you guys think?
