I been hunting antelope since 1974,have used a lot of different cartridges to do so. Take care of the meat and they are good eating and 1st rule of taking care of the meat is to not shoot them in the meat. Allways sideways thru the ribs about 1" low and 1.5" behind the white corner on their side ,gets both lungs and no eating meat. I've used the 223 to the 50-140 Sharps over 70 head now. Perfect gun is what you want it to be and for me I could use the 243 ,6mm ,257 or 25-06 for the rest of time and not want better. Magnums aren't needed but suspect the various 6.5's would be very fine. Good binos, rangefinder, bipod or crossticks your good to go. I use a 2 wheel cart like Oregunmuley has or a pack frame to get them out. MB
