Folks,
Been quite a a while since I have posted, so here we go. Took my Liberty barreled AR15 in 6.5 Grendel to area 96 for a doe/fawn pronghorn hunt. These are special tags, almost like a depredation tag. The hunt location was about an hour north and east of Rock Springs. I spoke with one of the farmers in the area, and came out. The farmer was great, he said come on, I will take you out to one of my fields. There were about 30 or so animals, conditions were not the best. It was in the 30s, with a 40 mph cross winds, I picked a doe at 200 yards. Took my shot, hit just behind the left shoulder. The 123gr SST, I hand loaded did its job! The lungs were blown into soup. She dressed out at about 50 pounds of steaks, sausage, ground. Very pleased! A2
