[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 415639, member: 2736"] I would probably take the 7 STW for it's all round capability. The Dall sheep are not huge but they are tough and need a good energy cal to bring them down. With the STW you should have a good 200 to 250 zero and know where it will hit out to 400 yards because you never now when the trophy of a lifetime will appear and how far. I have seen many people that were not prepaired to shoot over 200 yards lose a great animal that was well withen the capability of there rifle because they did not know where the POI was at greater distances. I admire anyone that passes on an animal because of there concerns of a good shot so I highly recomend that some shooting/practice is done at 300 and 400 yards before going on a special hunt like this. The STW is flat shooting enough to get a 5" maximum point range zero (Will hit withen a 5" circle) to cover 0 to 400 yards with no hold over, so that is the reason I would chose the Big 7. Just my opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
