25-06 works on an oryx. Shot this beast at 280 yards after a long day of hiking and chasing. This was on a part of the missile range where the oryx population is not that good, so was real happy to find this one yesterday afternoon.

38 1/2 on left, 37 on right. Not the biggest, but not the smallest either.

This would be by far the coolest hunt to do in NM.

Hmm....I don't know about that. I think a rifle hunt for Persian Ibex in the Florida Mountains would take that designation for me.

Good call. More challenging, too. I've killed a few Persian Ibex in their native range. It was always fun.
