    I am looking for a LM bull with good terminal traits. I will be retaining progeny until factory fit. What are sires within Lim to look out for these days?

    I'd be looking for a Gamin (ZGM) bull.

    I’d be looking at any of the lm bulls as I have for sale:D

    The above link has all ranked lim bulls for terminal. Plenty to choose from. I don’t finish so can’t advise.... An Adx or Dancer bull should be good though.

    If he was crossed on a good milky cow would the daughters be ok for milk?

    I think they’d might be worth a try as long as they’re not too extreme with muscle. ZGM IS -2 for milk but ADX is -8 which is a terrible figure.
