[QUOTE="barnesuser28, post: 775664, member: 43468"] we used to until they closed antelope season for us, my dad shot an antelope doe back when the season was open with our 22-250 but the wind brought the thin jacketed varmint bullet (didnt know anything about different bullets back then) into her front shoulder and she ran 3/4 mile with a broken leg and she stopped to go under a fence (funny cause they could jump it easy) and my dad popped another right behind the shoulder and she died on the spot. We would in WY this year if there wasnt a bullet weight restriction, my dad just bought a rem 220 swift but it only has a 1:14 twist barrel, but that made me want to shoot the Barnes 36 grain varmint grenade at about 4350 fps, should be a laser out to 300 yards. :D gun) Not that i would use the VG on antelope. Maybe for a head or neck shot but we know how that ended in the other thread. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
