![[Linked Image]](http://i423.photobucket.com/albums/pp311/patrickgsinclair/rams003.jpg) Bumped into these guys while out hunting wiley today. There were eight in this bunch, and across the coulee there was another bunch with nine rams in it. Hair is sure bleached out this time of year.... ![[Linked Image]](http://i423.photobucket.com/albums/pp311/patrickgsinclair/rams004.jpg) No whoppers in this group, just nice rams.. It was a nice day to out in the breaks.

What a great looking place the Breaks are. The sheep have the right idea too. Just relaxing in the warm sun.

scenar, how about a little education? Using the mil-dots on your scope,
Walk me through the process of how you would range the distance to the sheep, or anyone else that would like to explain this.

I would love to see that again with a tag in my pocket someday.
Thanks for sharing!

As I understand it, MT FWP is squaring everyone's points this year. Hoping that this means those of us with max points will start to show up more frequently as the folks who get the tags. I guess we'll see. That is one hunt I think I would take a leave of absence for.

Came across this young ram not long ago, slipped up on him with the little pocket camera. Sorry, no dots in my camera... ![[Linked Image]](http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k129/GuyMiner/wildlife%20and%20scenery/IMG_5147.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k129/GuyMiner/wildlife%20and%20scenery/IMG_5133.jpg) Had another group of eight rams, one pretty doggone good, within 80 - 100 yards of me last week. No camera on that trip though. Was out on the bicycle.

Alright I want someone tell me the actual distance, and how they figured it! I've gotten a couple different distances.
