    Howa Superlite?

    It took a bit of tinkering to get better than 1.25-1.75 moa, but I found a load with 130 TMK’s over 46.5gr of Viht560 that shoots good, but not real fast

    Vote for who has the best pack in 2023.

    From that list I've only worn Kuiu 7800 and Mystery Ranch Marshall guide LT. Of the 2, MR was more comfortable for me. I also have the Seek Outside Revolution 6300 which is my favorite for packing moose/elk quarters.

    Plantar fasciitis

    I got it in one foot on a sheep hunt (2022), lasted almost a year. I switched out my everyday shoe for a zero drop, minimalist style (Vivo ESC). I did my weighted rucks with these boots to on a steep local hill. Feet have been fine since then and were great on 2023 sheep hunt.

    Stone Sheep Hunt Success

    Nice ram! Sometimes the action comes quick on a hunt!

    MKC knife question

    The high end steel knife would do the entire animal too (if the steel was heat treated properly). Personally I find it easier to keep a knife's edge sharp rather than let it get dull then have to hone it back to sharp again. Plus a screaming sharp edge just cut with less effort than one that...

    How many years to draw first sheep tag?

    Drew a tag the first year applying back in 1999. Put in every year since and never drawn again.

    Sheep hunting alone?

    That was 13 years ago.... I was younger & stronger then I guess! That tent was 1.5 man weighed 6.5lbs. My sleeping bag, pad, pack…. Everything was heavier back then…. Before I discovered rokslide 😱

    Why do they make spotters above 40x?

    Need high power for counting rings. I have a 15-45x65 Athlon and wish I had more zoom. Tripod is 525 promaster. Pics were taken through spotter with a phoneskope.

    Goat rifle

    I echo what the others have said, maybe get a bigger bag for your pack. The 6.5 Tikka will work fine. If you want to drop some coin a Wildcat or other fibregalss/carbon stock would make it lighter.

    Stretched its legs in the spring out to 327 yards, and in November only 17 yards:

    9.3x62

    60.5gr of N540 gets me 2500fps in a 22" barrel Sauer 100 with 250AB. 61.5gr of Varget gave the same speed but didn't group as well.

    How do you justify sheep hunting?

    Honestly, can only afford it as a BC resident…tag is $60. I need to save up a bit though, would love to go out of country for an aoudad or tahr.
