100 gr. Rem. corelocks dropped mine at 200 yards and dropped him right on the spot.

I haven't gotten great accuaracy with the 105 hornady bullets, but it gets them over 3000 pretty easily and I plan on spending more time with that bullet to try and get it grouping better. |
There's not much to an antelope. No mass no heavy bone structure. Then again after watching a friend shoot one with a 300 RUM 180gr Accubond at 200yds and it still got back up and ran off it does boil down to the shot placement. I told him he needed a bigger gun for antelope hunting and laughed. Honestly there's not many bullets that shouldn't work on an antelope. I would take a more positive expansion bullet over a heavy controlled expansion for antelope. TSX would not be on my list anywhere.

I shot a 95 grain hornady sst with 36 grains of IMR 4064 for deer and antelope when i used my dads .243 win. A very good load in my opinion.

I shot 6 of the 105 amaxes at 300 yards on saturday to see if they were stabilizing. With a fairly stiff headwind and fading light, they made perfectly round holes and a 4" or so group. Just waiting for better conditions to try and dial that load in, now.
Still going to give the 95 bergers a shot, since I already have a box... |
