    Goats are extremely tough. I've watched them travel hundreds of yards in chest deep snow. I've also seen them kick a path through a 5' cornice to get on top of a ridge

    All the goats I've been in on have been either 270win or 30-06. A well known goat hunting guide out of alaska said most of his goats were taken with a 257 roberts with regular old soft point bullets. He contended the shock of a fast expanding soft point deer bullet did better on goats than high powered magnums or better constructed bullets like a tsx etc... I don't really know. I've used accubonds with great success on goat, and the 270 has been more than adequate.

    I'll be leaving for a region 3 hunt in a week so getting pumped now!!!

    I don't have anything to add but after reading this thread, best of luck on your region three hunt.. goat is something I'd like to get into sooner rather than later. The solitude sounds appealing !

    I love goat hunting but I'm not sure I really have much to share. When looking back at our goat hunt pictures over the years I think the scenery and memories of hunting with good friends and family stands out more than any of the Goats we have harvested.
