I'm headed to Montana on Friday. If I shoot a bull I'll do a euro mount, but I like messing with capes. Anyone know the average street value of a bull elk half cape? The front half used for a shoulder mount, not a full body cape. I'm seeing $300-$400, all things considered. Curious what others are seeing.

Depends on if it is green or fully prepped. To get that price, you would need to sell to an individual that needed a cape. I doubt you will get that price from a taxidermist.
