Finally took my first Animal with my new 6.5CM. Blue Wildebeest are Notorious for being tough, but was no match for the 142gr Nosler ABLR.

Nice Blue, what distance did you take him from?
 
Wonderful trophy, I took several animals with my 6.5CM a number of years ago, with the right bullet that caliber does very well. What rifle is that? It's a beauty!!

Its a remington 700ADL tactical
 
Nice!

The Remington Model 700 is my favorite bolt action.
(I don't care if it is a push-feed)
 
Nice shooting and nice looking blue!
 
I came to find that if you put it right where it should be, it's not a matter of if but when it goes down. After that, if it's good ammo, it's almost a certainty. The blue wildebeest is a special animal and one of my favorite I hunted. Very nice animal and good work!

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
