For those of you that have hunted sheep what would you say is the perfect Caliber for hunting the rough country that one finds big horn sheep in? I am sure a 338RUM, 300RUM, 300 mag, or any of the other super hard hiting calibers, but what about a fast recovery to put a second shot on the Ram, or what about weight? Would it be better to have a lighter weight not as hard a hitting gun that you recover from the recoil faster to put a second shot on the Ram to make sure he goes in his tracks? Would you consider using a 25-06 or 243 win? I know people are going to say take the gun you are comfortable with and can shoot well, but by the time I get to hunt them I will have lots of time to get comfortable with what ever gun I like. SO what say you light weight not as hard of a hitting gun like one mentioned/your favorite or does a guy take a harder hitting heavier gun?
