[QUOTE="Chadp82, post: 2379638, member: 114151"] I skimmed over most of this thread, but keep in mind sheep aren’t tough. The terrain certainly is. Any deer/elk rifle is perfectly capable. Fast and flat, that was the advice given to me last year. I shot mine ~260yds with a 280, 140 Accubond. Stumbled down the hill about 5 steps. For the rarity of a sheep hunt, I certainly appreciate the excuse to buy/build a rifle, but don’t overthink it. I almost took the .243 and I am certain it would have done the trick too. Spend the money on the binoculars, tripod, and a seat pad. You will spend a lot of time using them. [/QUOTE]
