Yes, but it was a small one. The guide wanted to go to the top, but said I would never make it in my boots. I told him let’s go to the trail head. We arrive and it was almost straight up and my ankles were going everywhere in my hiking boots. I looked at it and said there was not way I could make that with my boots and no poles. It was bad enough terrain for the one that I shot. We were walking across land slides, glacier moraines, etc, zero trails. Next time it’s mountaineering boots and poles. I have poles, but did not bring them as not on my packing list.

You surely had a great adventure!Triglav is bueatiful! End of the day it's not all about the size of the trophy.

That would have been gruelling in hiking boots and lucky you did not roll your ankles in them. Chamois love living in nasty country

Welcome! Please excuse the engineer in the room, but if 7mm is the minimum bore size for big game, how are you able to use a .270?

I thought that too,my only thought would be that they are so close in diameter. .277 v .284 but still not a 7mm.
