I received a NIB .504 Bison , bedded and a trigger job .
I was planning on keeping it unfired but I might just have to change my mind and use it :mrgreen:
I am going on a buffalo ( Bison ) hunt in January .
I am partial to the 451 and a lot of buffalo fell to the 45/70 but I was thinking of upping the energy factor anyway by using a .504 and the 600 gr power punch conical . Besides using the White Bison just seems a fitting tribute for a bison hunt . Range will be 100 to 150 yards on average. Guess I have a month to figure it out and decide if I really want to step up from .451 to the .504 .
 
Regardless of which rifle you hunt with I sure am looking forward to hearing about the hunt and seeing some pictures. Will you be looking for a bull or a cow?
