Ella took this Aoudad last night. He was 28". She shot him at around 150 yards with her 7mm-08 using one of my reduced recoil loads - 120 gr Sierra ProHunter at 2,650 fps. He bucked hard, ran 5 feet and fell over. I had her put one in the breast (his chest was facing use as he lay on the ground) for insurance. I wish I had propped him up for a better pic because he was truly awesome. Also, you can see the first shot under the skin on his right shoulder! Perfect mushroom!
She was so excited that she was crying for 5 minutes. It took a good while to get a clear shot as he was pushing all of the other mature males around in a total herd of about 30-35 Aoudad.
