Well my brother Andy and I where able to double up on two fantastic rams out of the Wrangles! This was the first time sheep hunting for either one of us so I fully understand that we bucked the odds!

My brother shot his ram on the first day of our hunts. He was a beautiful 7 yr old ram that taped out at 34.5 in.

I was able to connect on a ram on the sixth day. He was a great dark horned ram that was 10 yrs old and 36.5.

To say that the hunt was epic would be an understatement !! I think that we both caught the sheep hunting bug!

That looks like a dream come true! Fantastic. What did you think of your two camo patterns? Did you make any comparisons?
Is seemed as though both patterns worked very well. The Kuiu that my brother wearing worked awesome. He virtually disappeared in the rocks. He also said that the ASAT was impressive.

Congrats to both of you! Not many photos out there of Rams killed in the trees...
Haha we have gotten that response more than once. My ram actually rolled down a 400ft. chute and stopped in the trees.

Took a bit of a spill packing out my ram, forbes rifle still preformed when my brother took his ram with a well placed shot at 460 yards

Not impressed at all by the Nosler Long range accubounds that I had loaded other than accuracy..... pic is of my shot on my ram, 140 yards, found the bullet right on the surface.... same results at 460 yards

Great report. Thanks for that. And for including your terminal ballistics. Good to know. May have missed it but what caliber?
