    Despite the odds, how many Sheep Tags have you Drawn or Won in your Life?

    Made a lifelong friend with a CO resident hunting sheep same as me in S12 archery in 2007. Great great hunt, and neither of us got our ram.

    CO bighorn sheep, mountain goat, and pronghorn raffles

    Thanks Oak. I’m for another round.

    Wildife Task force 90-10, etc.

    Did you watch or attend the task force meetings? I watched every minute of them and that is not the impression I got.

    Utah Hunt expo -SMH

    No, he’s suggesting RMEF did not get the bid because they are not corrupt.

    Rifle Build on a pre-64 model 70 action

    I’ve used Bansner Sheephunter stocks on numerous M70 Classics. Would be worth a call to check on Pre 64 fit, I’d imagine it would be fine. Nothing wrong with the good old .270; if I ever build a Pre 64, that is what it will be. I’ve taken everything from antelope to AK/YK moose with that with...

    6.5-300 RMEF Weatherby - Sell or Keep It?

    It’s a Vanguard, no? Nothing special at all about it, other than it has a different “engraved” $5 floorplate. If the OP must have a Weatherby, trade it to your dealer for a Camila in a reasonable caliber for your daughter. Probably be better off with a Savage for her similar to what he has already.

    CO bighorn sheep, mountain goat, and pronghorn raffles

    Crap. I’m a sucker for M70’s. Looks like another round of tickets coming. If I could win the credit there will be a sweet .270 homage to JOC but that ultra modern piece would do quite the trick on the mountain!

    CO bighorn sheep, mountain goat, and pronghorn raffles

    Good advice. Can’t go into these things looking to win. Must look at it as a donation or you will be a sad pathetic human almost all the time. And I will raise your 1/287 mountain goat tag to 1/2412…

    CO bighorn sheep, mountain goat, and pronghorn raffles

    Don’t give it a thought. Helped a buddy with a AZ Desert Bighorn hunt, handled the heck out of his ram, then drew as a NR the next year.

    Which would you pick out of the "Super Seven"?

    I’d choose Musk Ox. I think they look pretty good without a full body mount. At least I think mine does: I took mine DIY in September. I’d like to go back and do a winter hunt for the experience and for the meat. If I won the lottery I’d buy a Musk Ox Governor tag every year and fly the whole...

    You draw one tag next year…

    Any one of the Rocky Mountain Bighorn sheep tags I apply for.

    CO bighorn sheep, mountain goat, and pronghorn raffles

    I hunted CO Bighorns DIY with my recurve in 2007. Was not able to take my ram. I have zero chance to draw again. I buy tickets every year and am a life member of RMBS because that is the best I can do to thank them for the big part they played in there being populations for us to hunt. Wild...

    Wild sheep and disease

    https://adbss.org/black-mountain-sheep-update/ ^^^ old article but I can confirm this pneumonia has spread all over the 15s in AZ. Last month I was blessed to hunt 15D and took a 9 year old ram who had pneumonia. He was coughing and had a nasty green yellow mucus dripping out of his nose. Such...

    Who builds custom WOOD/BLUED bolt-action hunting rifles built around Mauser controlled-feed actions?

    I’m surprised you guys have not pointed him towards an Echols Classic. I’d bet D’Arcy would flatten a handle for him. TTom, you are not going to find what you want for double the price you want to pay. You obviously haven’t been in any gun shops lately.

    Yep PURE classic! Thanks.

    @buffybr What is the rifle/cartridge/scope setup there? Looks pretty classic. I will second the tough dog comment. Looks like a golden retriever! Must be mixed with a little St. Bernard.
