Very well done story. Super ram with a lifetime of memories. Can you comment a bit on your rifle/scope and ammo setup?

54Woody; Thanks for sharing the great hunt photos and story with us, I appreciate you taking the time to do it.
Congratulations on a super ram!
That's surely why folks go up there, but not everyone even gets to lay eyes on a ram that good.
It's been too many decades now since I've been to the Yukon or fished for grayling and the photos brought back fond memories for me.
Thanks again sir and good luck to you on your remaining hunts this fall.
Regards, Dwayne

Glad everyone likes the story. I enjoy posting it as it allows me to relive the trip. Wish I had a trip worthy of doing this every year. I used my Tikka T3 with a Nikon Monarch 3-12. No BDC reticle for me, I think most people don't really know how to use them and I do not like my view cluttered. Used Federal Premium 150 grain Nosler Partitions in the classic sheep caliber .270 Win.

Best of luck when you get back after your moose.
Took me 3 trips to pull the trigger on my sheep.

Great story, thank you! You did an excellent job of putting the story together with the photos. Am I a little envious...? You better believe it! Congratulations on a fine ram.
