Hunting on the Armendaris Ranch in NM. Took us two daysto find this guy. Saw over 400 cow and calves and 15 bulls before we found thisone hiding in the lava flows. Using a 50-70 built on an old Argentine action. Ended up with a 200 yard shot that broke the spine and sent himto the ground, would have shot lower but the guide was confused about my zero,said he thought I was on at 150 but I had a 200yd zero (he told me the rangewas 150 and to hold "Center"), fell over like I hit him with a sledgehammer, it was like you see in the movies. Reminded me of shooting steel ducksin a shooting arcade where they fall over immediately after being hit with aBB. The four quarters we turned in to the butcher weighed 816lbs, probably wentover 2300 on the hoof. Last year's bull was a bit lighter, probably around2100.
