Kilimanjaro Report post Posted February 3, 2017 Sure, Crotalus. Let's see:: 2014: Muskox was a borrowed 30/06 from my Inuit guide. I didn't want to take my own rifle on that hunt. Slovenia was a Blaser in .270 Macedonia was a 7mm Romania was a Blaser in .243 Spain was the Blaser 270. 2015: Sonora bighorn used my custom 300HH. Turkey same. Spain that year everything with a Blaser in 270. 2016: Azerbaijan again with my 300HH. Spain and Kyrgyzstan 2016 everything with my custom 264Win Mag. Best shots were in Azerbaijan at the Dagestan Tur at 486 and 500 (hit twice) with the 300H&H and in Kyrgyzstan with my 264Win mag on the Marco Polo at 586 yards. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZbowhntr Report post Posted February 3, 2017 That is an impressive list of animals there. Most of which I don't even know what they are. But most of them looked like they were on the side of a very steep mountain. Luckily you do your own taxidermy work. Congrats on all of them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
