Functional Angus bulls, proven in the Great Basin.
A family seedstock program in Fallon, Nevada — AI-bred for fertility, feet, and feed efficiency, and selected on the whole animal. We run fewer cows, and we know every one of them.
Our 2026 Champion.
The 2027 bulls were weaned this fall — so start with what the program has already produced. This bull won his class at the Great Basin Bull Sale on structure, soundness, and a complete set of numbers to back it.
This year’s prospects.
All nine 2026-born bull calves, selling private treaty off the ranch. One Range Ready bull sells at the Great Basin Bull Sale, February 13. Their EPDs are interim — pedigree- and genomics-based estimates (AAA marks these “I”) that firm up as weaning and yearling weights come in. Photos and walking video post as we collect them. Get on the list and we’ll send our full 2027 private-treaty lineup the day it’s ready.
R9R Home Town 406.
Our home-raised all-purpose herd sire — and the father of two bulls in this year’s crop, including Minute Man 610. Now offered for sale by private treaty.
Our 2027 lineup posts this winter. Be first to see it.
Our 2027 private-treaty bulls — finished EPDs, weights, and walking video — post this winter. Get on the list and we’ll send them the day they’re ready, plus any private-treaty bulls that come available first.
Our sire battery.
A small, curated group of proven AI sires — every one with a published AAA record. This is the genetic foundation under the 2027 calves. Semen & embryos available on select sires.
