The ROA can deliver a real pay load of pistol power. The ROA SS revolvers have a replaceable front sight blade. This allows the use of a higher front sight blade. The LEE .457 220 grns conacal has a tapered base. It loads easy and runs over 1,000 fps. when charged with 40/T-7.
Any heavy quality blade belt knife well serve a hunter in the Mountain West.I prefer the early S&W Bowie knife. The flap sheath was made by a saddle shop. It protects the handle and hilt from being nicked by rocks and sand.

What kind of game does one find in your area? On this coast it's mostly white tail, squirrel, rabbits, coon, muskrat, turkey. Here in Delaware they eat muskrat, call it 'marsh rabbit". I would imagine you'd have some predators and mulies, any elk? Bear? I only ran across one bear ( mostly hunted out near where I'm from in the Blue ridge ) but may be in an area soon where 2-300lb black bear and mountain lions are found. Of course rattlesnakes are always the lunch that bites back in them hills...
