Well my mid shift is over in 1 hour.
Get on my Kawasaki, ride home, change and take off after goats with my buddy Lloyd.
Shirley basin area Wyoming. Taking the 257 Bee with 110 AB at 3500 fps.

PS I do plan on sleeping on the truck ride back! :mrgreen:
 
Good luck Fotis! Hope you have a great day on the hunting fields. Scotty
 
Only have to be awake to:
Find him
range him
dump him
field dress him.

That is what?..... 30 minutes in all? :mrgreen:

Anyway thank you fellas.
 
I was done by 9:00 am. Let us know how that .257 works out. I think that will be my next caliber. I also slept on the way home! Good luck. Brian
 
Pictures will undoubtedly be posted shortly. Go get 'em, Fotis! Best of luck to you.
 
the 257 bee was ......deadly!

Dinky buck...as usual..... wanted to fill out ASAP so the kids can have the weekend free to hunt all day long for lopers.

Good job, thank you for the photos.
At 3500 it reaches out and touches something in a hurry :wink:

Nice looking bucks, how does the meat taste on pronghorns? That is one animal I would love to hunt one day, sure my 264 WM would work great :)
 
Great shooting! Way to take the hunt straight to the antelope! That 257 is a screamer! Scotty
 
Nice work, that was certainly a quick hunt. Raw heart? :shock: Thanks for sharing the pictures.

I think I will partake in some of Woodycreeks Elk heart when he nails his! Heck, it was good for the Crow's and the other mountain men! Whadda ya think Brian? Can your Southern Va upbringing allow you to get a little spirit of the mountains in ya! Scotty
