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!

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.
