Because I don't like to loose meat, I use the same bullets to kill antelope as I do to kill elk most times. I like some expansion, but not any "blow-ups" .
But any 30 cal hunting bullet from 125gr and up will work to kill them.
Last years I killed my antelope with a 270 with a 150 grain Round Nose, one with a 140 grain Hornady Flex-Tip from a 300 Savage and one with a 156 grain PPU bullet from my 6.5X54 Mannlicher. All were instant kills and all did very little meat damage.
In the past I have killed them with many different guns and bullets, and none got away, but for me personally I don't like to blow them up much.
Thank you. A serious question finally got a serious answer. Makes perfect sense, so maybe just a 150 or 165 Hornady is fine. Trying to avoid the SST and others that seem to create a very big hole
