How about the story on the Antelope? That has some unique characteristics. Hopefully it was put on the wall!

That's from a few years ago in Wyoming.
Fellow member huntr, a friend, and I, bought 4 does tags each for private property in unit 72.
She had cool horns like a spiders fangs, and was shot at around 400 yards with a handloaded 168 gr bthp.
Seems all the does had horns in this area. Just had to make sure there wasn't a black patch on the side of the jaw/head area.

And sadly no.
I had cut it for a euro mount and before it got boiled a neighborhood mutt running loose musta got it, or a coon or skunk.

BTT. You guys been putting any new ARs together? I finally got my favorite one set up how I like it now. Trying to track down my camera in my hunting gear and then I'll get some pictures up. Also, decided to try out a PSA upper and got one of those on the way. Looking forward to trying that one out.

You guys take way better pictures than me, but here are a few:

16" 5.56 with Leupold Mark AR scope, and a PSA 308 (have since mounted another Mark AR scope on that one)

It has pros and cons; overall I'm pretty happy with it, especially considering the price, but some of the issues might be a deal breaker for other people.

The upper/lower fit is looser than I hoped for, the bolt catch hole is too small for the roll pin, and the chamber was a bit tight. PSA probably would have fixed the chamber, but as a gunsmith, I just did it myself.

It shoots well though; initial load workup this weekend delivered several groups under 1/2" with 150gr and 168gr BT's, and reliability has been 100%.

All said and done, I've got a sub-moa 308 AR that's reasonably light weight (10.2 lb with a 3x9 Leupold installed), produces about 150 fps higher velocity than my PTR-91, and cost just under $1000 before the scope.

Ak, what type of optic are you running on that? That build turned out very nice! You reloading for it?

Right now I'm running Magpul open sights (flip ups) but want to put an optic on it. Not really sure what to get because I want to use it for hunting as well as HD.

I don't reload so right now I'm shooting factory stuff, though I have been seriously considering taking up reloading because my wife loves to shoot and I get the feeling once she shoots this AR, she's going to want one of her own. Thanks for the compliment bear.
