That doesn't look like any Blacktail I've seen on West COAST in 50 years.

It's not.

It's big but most importantly it's meat!

That doesn't look like any Blacktail I've seen on West COAST in 50 years.

It also doesn't look like the western OR/WA I'm used to seeing, maybe a drought?

243 Win, 270 Win, 7mm-08, 308 Win, 30-06 just to name a few.

If you don’t reload, and want off the shelf availability then I’d say 270, 308, or ‘06 with slight more availability to the 308. Or at least it feels that way around my part
I'm a big .270 Win fan, using it to get numerous Maine white-tails, a moose, and lots of other critters at ranges up to 300 yards! The moose was a one-shot kill at about 270 yards.
