No ethics police
Please forgive the language and don’t question me on shooting I wouldn’t have taken the shoot if I wasn’t comfortable with. Im shooting a 6.5 PRC with a 156 gr Berger.

Nothing wrong with that shot, dead right there.👍

Nicely done.


Maybe I’m just not super ethical but what was potentially the problem with the shot? Just that it was quartering to?

There’s some people on here that would question a frontal shot at 425 yards. And if I didn’t have good rest and bracing and very little wind I wouldn’t have taken the shot, especially on a mountain goat

Beautiful billie and country, a bit rougher than the Goat Rocks.

Well I’d say the result kind of speaks for itself, good shooting!

Great looking goat, nice work!
My interpretation of the rules are open to interpretation.
Once I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.
