I agree it is tough to judge full curl or 4/5ths curl. The ram we shot this year is only a couple inches past full curl on the one side and barely full curl on the other. We were in a 4/5ths zone so we were not worried but in 400 we might have left him. We were below the sheep even though we were close from that angle they looked shorter. The ram we left was most likely 4/5ths but we left him because we did not want to come up short. I am sure he was close to a 180+ ram though because his bases were almost as big as the other ram just a few inches shorter.
