Default Mountaineer belches smoke

It ain't no trophy but he is in the process of becoming mesquite flavored jerky,
Knight Mountaineer
120 gr blackhorn 209
250gr lehigh
Winchester primer
152 yards Bushnell rangefinder
shot prone from bipod
Dropped on the spot.
There was a big boy but he had all the girls and was about 800 yards away. This poor guy was all alone, I imagine he got run off. I decided he was good enough. better a bird in hand then 2 in the bush.

Good job. Been a long time since I tasted Antelope jerky. But as I recall it was mighty tasty. Congrats
