Best I remember, flat out was a heifer bull that sek had maybe 10 years back,  dictator was before that.  Can't place warpath.

calving ease, i would think not.  i would just call who is listed on the links.

you need to have a very specific idea in mind using these genetics.

I used flat out for 2 years on heifers, no problems for me.

I liked all of them especially warpath, those really worked for me.

I had some Warpath daughters.  Bought them from K-Bar out of the first Northern Exposure sale.  Very sound, functional, productive females - they bred back quickly and weaned a big stout calf every time.  Kept them 'til they were 14, they never missed a lick.  They were plainer cows though, didn't raise many show calves - maybe a "county show" steer every once in awhile.  Their daughters could sure have a show calf, though.  I just have a couple of those Warpath grand daughters left, but they're good ones.

Here are some ads I had saved for each of the bulls you asked about. We used Dictator back in the 90's, he had good steers that were pretty competive for the times. They were little shallow for today. The females were more an asset to us though, they milked well and had some of our best calves. Many heifers of those cows are still in are herd.

I remember seeing several Real nice Show Heifers sired by Flat Out, but never used him myself. Dictator I remember, but don't know anything worth sharing. Never heard of Warpath.

If you are on an Iphone sometimes you can't see PDF's. So here are the pics.
