Thanks guys. It was a lot of work. 9 days is a long time for an old guy like me to haul his butt up and down those Mts. The ram was 11 1/2 years old, 37.5 inches. He was the only legal ram we saw at any range on the hunt and really only one of a few rams more than half curl, although we saw a lot of sheep. The weather played havoc with the sheep and their patterns and the rams simply vanished and we really didn't know where to turn. It was also nice that I spotted him and not my guide, Mike, who did a terrific job throughout. I was never so glad as when we judged him legal. | |||

Nice ram. Looks like you were with Deltana. Did you shoot one of those caribou bulls also? The bull that is out of velvet is not bad. NRA Life Member GOA Life Member Distinguished Rifleman President's Hundred | |||

I was with Deltana. This is my second trip. I know there is a guy on this forum that had a bad experience with them a few years back, but I can't say enough good things about Ralph and Jim. They work about as hard as anyone to get you your sheep. Great equipment, first rate guides and pilots. I hunted with Billy Molls my first trip and Mike Thomas this time. These guys want to hunt and will push you as hard as you can be pushed. We covered well over 120-30 miles in the 9 days and I was beat, but I look a whole lot better for it now ![]() ![]() | |||

Great photos. My wife and I vacationed in Alaska Labor Day week and had a great time. A Dall sheep hunt is high on my list - loosing the 25 lbs to do it is going to be the hard part. If you are going to carry a big stick, you've got to whack someone with it at least every once in while. | |||

My "normal" sheep rifle is a .300 Win Mag., built by Kerry O'Day at MG Arms. I usually shoot 180 gr. partitions out of it. It weighs about 6.2 lbs scopped and loaded. Since I was also hunting bear on this trip, I decided not to take it, but instead to take my .338 Rum, also built by Kerry, but about a pound and a bit heavier. Shooting 225 Gr. TSX at 3100 fps. By the end of the trip that lb really added up....anyway it was also probably too much gun for sheep, but worked well. In retrospect the .300 would have been just fine for mt. grizz too, so if I go on another sheep hunt of any type, it's the .300 that goes. | |||
