Quite a few years, back in 1995 to be precise, I drew a coveted Rocky Mtn Big Horn tag for Pikes Peak.Since Jack O'Conner wrote that it was the best cartridge for sheep hunting, I built one up on an Jap Araisaka action. I worked up a load using 130gr Game Kings and killed a nice ram with one shot at about 350 yards.

I then gave it to my niece which she still has, I didn't figure Colorado would ever give me another sheep tag as I had no use for it


If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles
