I'd say not but it isn't because of the antelope, the .460 WBY will handle an antelope just fine. It's the jackelope you've got to watch out for they're nearly impossible to stop in a charge! Without one of the big bore doubles, it could just get flat ugly!!!
Let me know how it goes. Make sure you allow for bullet drop and squeeeeze the trigger, don't wanna jerk the shot and have to trail a gut shot antelope. I hear they are vicious
Do they offer that rifle in a nice light package, maybe a mountain rifle with a really short barrel? Don't you just prop that gun up at say a 45 degree angle and drop the cartridges down the barrel?
That's a tough call, I would say you might want to get into handloading, and make sure you load the rounds with Barnes TSX, solid copper bullet, and whatever you do, aim for the eye, nothing will take out an antelope unless it's an eye shot, those antelope have some darn hard exoskeletons for sure.
Me personally< i would suggest you hunt near water of some sort so that you can call for 16 in Naval Gun fire. You are going to need it. That way, if you twitch just a little on the trigger pull, going for that eye shot, you make sure that you still get them. Close will work in this case.
