As this is to the nearest 1/2 inch, I'd say 28.5 inches.

Thank you guys for the answers.

Keep them coming.

Either PM or on here is fine sorry for the confusion.

You are welcome to state the sex if you wish but will not have any effect on the competition.

Settlers Safaris: Come on now PM me with the sex... Make sure you don't get it wrong ;-)

Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

Since you can see the bipod leg in the background....can't you just measure a real bipod leg and use that to figure out how wide the horns are?

you'd have to measure a real leg, then account for the angle of the leg in the picture, and use that to figure the width of horns. You know, like they do on CSI? Big Grin

I'll go with 26.5

Zhaba, Palmer & Shukaree. Congratulations you have made it through to the final. I will do the draw very soon.

The correct answer was 26 1/4 Inches.

*** Some will notice that Palmer had an answer on here of 31.25. However he had firstly send me a response of 26 1 / 4. As this was sent first I stuck with this answer which was lucky for him ***

Watch this space.

Alex,

Please specify a date for this to end.

I don't like to see things left open ended.

I assumed the draw was going to be on August 1st, as per your original post.
