If you use Geist/SH's study you end up with 50 rams.

It's always important to look at the location and parameters of a study. Geist's study was a non-hunted population so that would have a significant bearing. In heavily hunted population it's not hard to imagine that only 1% of rams might make it to 10. There is much more to a study than the final numbers.
