[QUOTE="KTP, post: 2666082, member: 57708"] I have a possible chance to hunt free range Aoudad in west Texas. This will be the first time for me on these critters. They are known for being big boned and considered tough. I have recently finished building a 6.5 PRC on a medium Zermatt action, Shilen barrel and it’s topped with a Leupold VX5HD 3-15x44. I’ve developed a load that the rifle shoots very well and I’ve run it out to 500 yards on 4” steel. I’m shooting a Barnes 127 LRX at 3040 muzzle velocity, 2282 muzzle energy and still holding a velocity of 2117 at 500 yards and 1264# of energy. (Calculated with StrelokPro). For you guys that have hunted Aoudad will that be enough of a gun to handle the job? [/QUOTE]
