hey guys. never been hunting for antelopes befor . me and my lady aer going week after next. going to lusk. never been that far north befor. where should we hunt? does anybody have some land we can come hunt on? went out and we shot the guns today. i can hit a paperplate just about everytiem at 100 and can not wait. hoping its not to cold or windy. where can we go hunting at? thanks
 
Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Hitting a paperplate at 100 yards to me just isn't accurate enough. Are you hitting it deadcenter everytime? You really want sight it in at 200 yards, which means you should be 2" high at 100 yards to compensate for the drop. Also check the Wy fish and game site for information of Walk in areas in the area you plan to hunt or call them and they can send you a list of landowners allowing access mostly for a fee.. Good Luck!

I am sure he means offhand wich is more than what most people can do.
 
its my grandaddys old model 12 12 guage. that should kill one right?
Thats where the 100yd paper plate comes in. Yeah it will work. Should be a fun time using that old shotgun I have an old model 12 myself but have never ran slugs through it.
