[QUOTE="CogburnR, post: 488154, member: 29174"] I'll be hunting northeast of Craig this year also. The 257 Weatherby is enough gun but you may want to take a 30 also. The old cowboys I went with used 25-06's. I used a 270WSM last time and rolled a cow at 500+(482 to the bush she was behind). I'll be taking my 6.5-284 this year also. If the horse carries the gun it can be heavier. It wouldn't hurt to get a horse lesson or two. I bought a set of big stirrups that my boots fit in. We haul horses from South Dakota. They get pretty skinny after a week. Somewhere on here was a link...here- [url]http://www.wildsheep.org/pdf/six_minute_hill.pdf[/url]. Sounded like a good way to get in shape. Good Luck!! [/QUOTE]
