Looking for some help on which rifle would be better for killing antelope.
I have a new AR-15 that i was thing of using but not sure. Also in my arson is a 243 and a 7wsm.
Any help would be great Thanks!!
 
Which would you pick before any advise? Also, I wouldn't advertise your fire starting ways.;):D
 
Antelope aren't particularly hard to kill... while all are more than capable, I'd pick the one you feel the most comfortable shooting.
 
if it were me I would leave the AR at home and go with the 243. I am a big fan of the 6mms and I would throw an 85gr TSX at it and go home happy. Good luck let us know how it turns out. HAPPY HUNTING
 
Take the 7mm WSM and .243 to the range. Which ever shoots the best groups at 300 yards....take that one.

Have fun, good luck
 
Thanks for the reply!!! I feel comfortable with all. Just seen some 120 grain from barnes for the 7wsm. Might lean this way if I can get some data to load them.

Will keep you all posted on how the hunt went.
