LOL. There certainly were no sugar cubes or corn used. These things were in peak rut and we're hunting in oil fields so they are less skittish about seeing humans. It's rare to be able to get this close but was cool.

44 mag with the extra velocity from a longer rifle barrel is a pretty stout round, not surprised to see it drop like that. With the right ammo you start to get close to the lower end of the 45-70 spectrum. It seems the Antelope were huddled together in some sort of assisted suicide pact as they made no effort to be alert to potential danger, every one I've even been remotely near, are far more skittish. Good hunting and a clean kill.

@fiveowaf454 Жыл бұрын
@@dylankorpi137 While I'd reach for my 45-70, out of choice, for brown bear defense, there's no doubt that some of the hot 44 mag loads, out of a rifle barrel are up in the territory to be effective. Many rely on a 44 mag revolver for bear defense and the lever action rifle in the same chambering is a step up from that in terms of power.

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?

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.
