Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting .257 Cal Bullets?

My favorite corner on my Trophy Room. The 4 rams and the Wolverine were all one shot kills with 117 gr Sierra GameKing bullets from my .257 Ackley. Only the Dall ram and Wolverine were taken on a guided hunt. The longest shot on all of these animals was 206 yards on the Dall ram. The Mule Deer was a 30 yard shot with a patched round ball from my .45 caliber BP Kentucky percussion rifle. The Goat was less that a 100 yd shot with a 180 gr Nosler Partition from my .30 Gibbs. The Bighorn rams and the Goat were DIY solo hunts in Montana's Unlimited tag Bighorn units.
