[QUOTE="Weatherby Fan, post: 1488053, member: 29953"] I know from a few sheep hunts I’ve been on, fly-ins etc Where ever you can shed a few pounds its meaningful as a lot of the hiking is brutal, you’ll be much happier back packing a 6lb rifle as opposed to a 9lb rifle, when your hiking 15-30 kilometres in a day by the end of each day your thinking how can I shed a few lbs ! As others have mentioned sheep are easy to kill so as far as calibers go it’s whatever your happy with as 6.5CM, 270 win or 300 wsm ? Etc are all going to kill. SS Lightweight and compact with an optically tough scope is in order if your doing any amount of backpacking. [/QUOTE]
