[QUOTE="gyrfalcon, post: 2361755, member: 120244"] Goat hunting implies lots of climbing and hiking over rough terrain. Typically for those of us in tip top shape. A lightweight rifle scoped and loaded no more then 7.5 lbs. Goats have narrow chests, fast expanding bullets are best. A 270 win, 6.5, 7/08 or .308 win are just fine. Long range shooting in mountains is extremely difficult due to impossible and totally unpredictable winds to read. Climb up there where the goats are with a light rifle and gear and take your chances at sane distances. [/QUOTE]
