Seems she always catches bigger fish than you do.

Since ingwe broke the ice here is a picture of an opening day pronghorn from Wyoming. The hunter had not hunted them for the last 26 years.

Congrats.
Is that an Heym sr30 ? Yes it is. It belongs to my Swedish hunting partner whom has been gracious enough to make it available to me for the duration of my stay. So foreign yet warmly familiar when compared to my rifles back in the states. It is accurate, handles well and is well suited to hunting then entire globe. The workmanship, fit and finish are impeccable. I have been very successful with it so it has a permanent place in my heart.

Can you tell us if it is true that those antelopes require long shots ? It depends on the terrain a particular herd inhabits. I have taken them with a handgun at 50 yds and as far as 930 yds with a rifle. I was out this weekend and had them anywhere for 300 yds to 750 yds. Too warm to shoot one as I did not have a cooler with me. Hopefully next weekend.

How's this for Swedish fish? I took this salmon (lax) earlier this year from Lake Vanern in Sweden. The largest lake in the EU. Gutted out it weighed 5.7kilos = 12.5lbs. I figure live weight was around 15lbs...
