Re: Sheep hunt newbie
260 is lots of jam for a ram. TTSX not necessary in my experience, I run frangible cup/core and they just pancake for the most part. Pretty much any expanding bullet in the lungs will do, I've found stone Rams to die easy at normal impact velocities. Target practice in the field, mountains, steep angles if possible, being confident out to at least 350yds will be advantageous. 260 should be good to 500+ easy with properly designed bullet, such as the eldx...
The only advantage to a light rifle is it's weight, all other advantages go to the heavier rifle..
