[QUOTE="lhp63190, post: 2142524, member: 96319"] Boast Post. Recently got back from my first Aoudad hunt in west Texas. Was fortunate to harvest a 29" sheep that was broomed on both sides. 13.75 inch bases. Hunting partner spotted this sheep at just under 2 miles. By the time we closed the distance and popped our head over the ridge, he was under 500 yards and working his way towards us. Gun/Load -- 28 Nosler. 180 Berger Hunting VLD. SHOT -- 390 Yards. Sub 5 mph Wind. Impact Velocity 2630. Impact Energy 2750. Hit 1 inch behind crease. Result -- Caliber wound going in. Golf ball size would through both lungs. Significant fragmentation through liver. Ran 70 yards (no blood) and fell over dead before I could get back on him. Bullet broke rib on exit and lodged just under offsite skin. Bullet retained 86.4 grains of original weight. 29" Broomed [ATTACH type="full"]258721[/ATTACH] Entrance Wound just behind crease [ATTACH type="full"]258722[/ATTACH] Exit Wound.
