Daughters antelope

[Firebird24]

Myself, my father in law and my son in law spent the day with my oldest daughter hunting antelope in Wyoming today. She passed up a “freak” that I would’ve shot
For sure but she just didn’t fall in love with it. She had several others in the crosshairs but wasn’t ready to pull the trigger on them. Later in the day we found this guy with his back to us asleep in a little depression area. We sneaked to 100 yards and then He got up, still unawares and at 150 ish he turned broadside.
Shot was behind the front shoulder and exited in front of the off shoulder. 150 gr ABLR from my rem700 7mm-08. He just sort of folded forward to the ground-very well heart shot. A super fun day for all of us!

She is 4 1/2 months pregnant so this had to be a low key adventure!

Thank you all-the I bought that rifle for
My girls long ago with the muzzle break already in place. They have all shot it well and I have used it many times with great success.
I asked her later if she felt the recoil when she shot and she of course did not notice any-
