so i have my first big game hunt next month for antelope and then elk in october,

been thinking about purchasing a 300 win mag for the elk hunt, but i am just wondering if a 140 gr out of the 300 would be over kill for the antelope hunt, this will be my first rifle (other than my 10/22)

thanks everyone
