Uhhh, yeah but do yourself a favor and buy a Savage heavy barrel varmit in 223.
Take 500 rounds of ammo for it. If you go in Oct. which is a very nice time for weather
you can combine antelope on the same trip. Just keep the larger gun for shots over 400
and for an antelope that might wander along to see what your shooting at. A few years
back i was alone on a ranch in SE Montana way back in on a dog town. Bright yellow jeep
perched on a knoll and i had been shooting for hours. All of a sudden i was attracted to movement
off to my left on a low ridge. Single file came a herd of over 30 antelope with several shooter bucks.
They stopped right where i was shooting and ultimatly laid down. That isnt the only time ive had that
happen, it happens every trip at some point, but thats the most at one time. Also take a preditor call
along and you might be shocked to see what comes to investigate.
