rugerfan08 it's funny how all of a sudden there is so many keyboard shooter's on KZread. once again awesome video. and the last one is amazing thanks . and keep them coming.

Unfortunate first shot smoked em with the follow up. Don’t listen to those talking smack about the ability of the 708 it’s a great cartridge for deer and antelope size game. Not sure if you were using Nosler ballistic tips or not but again a 140 grain hunting ballistic tip out of the 708 with some imr 4350 is all you will ever need

What grain were you shooting looks like he never moved from where he was bedding. Nice job

Eric Younce he was shooting a 145 out of a 7mm-08. Have a great day!!!

You gotta love the keyboard hunters on KZread. Learn what a good shot looks like in the real world people. Overly edited "production quality hunts" often edit hunts to look much more quick and clean. This was an extremely quick and clean harvesting. to see it as otherwise is to out yourself as ignorant.

rugerfan08 After reading the comments about this hunt would you change when the first shot happened or would you have done the same thing? We all get caught up in the moment when out hunting and sometimes we make a decision that isn’t in the better odds side of things. Myself who has hunted antelope and has been hunting for 27 ish years would not have taken the first shot. Even if the animal had no grass in front of it I don’t think I would have shot. By the video there was lots of time with this animal that one could have waited for a better first shot when it would have stood up. Yes with the follow up shot it was a quick dispatch of the antelope. Congratulations on the antelope it was a dandy one. You said it was a 145 grain bullet but I never saw what type of bullet it was?

@@blaynemacpherson8519 I wasn't the hunter here simply filming for an awesome nearly 80 year old hunter. Its obviously unfortunate with the camera angle that people get the perspective of it having been a bad shot but it wasn't in the least. Is a bedded shot typically a lower percentage shot? Surely. In this case an extremely experienced hunter made the decision to take the shot made a great hit on a tough animal followed it up with a 2nd shot to be ethical. I can't fault him for that.

I would have waited for it to stand up. But i aint haitin lol

that Antelope obviously using pcp

I'm headed out to Oklahoma with a 7mm08 for pronghorn and such

Barrel length I meant

I'm guessing none of these guys in comments have ever hunted antelope... well placed shots. Antelope are just very tough animals. I've killed tons. Always die harder then any deer.

that might be so, but the first shot clearly didn't hit the CNS.
