Anyone give me the basics on Axis and Blackbuck? - 01/10/16 04:03 PM
I was fortunate enough to be invited to hunt a ranch in Kimble county and we are primarily looking for axis. It is low fence and they say they usually have good numbers on the property. They also see blackbuck occasionally. The place is just shy of a thousand acres with lots of terrain change. They have several feeders and box blinds set out at about a hundred yards. I will be rifle hunting with my custom 7mm-08 with fairly hot hand loads and feel like I can do an ethical shot inside 400 yards or so. I'm still above 2000 FPS at 500 yards so plenty of power. Much past that I feel like is more for a magnum caliber.
I'm headed down in a week and have never hunted axis or blackbuck before. Anyone have any tips or advice they would care to offer up? Thanks!!
