This ornery beast rammed the truck as we drove slowly by. We went to look for him later and he turned over an ATV. Well, he had to go. I shot 'em at around 45 yards with a 405gr Kodiak Bullet @ 2000 fps. It hit the shoulder and exited the off side with a hole about 3/4" round. 1380 pounds of hamburger. A lot of BBQ'in this summer!
That one of our customers with a Man from 1958 in 30-06. He was the unfortunate recipient of the impact when the brute smashed the passenger door of the truck in. The customer shot a hybrid ram and a 4-horned sheep with that gun and it performed perfectly.
Was this in Texas? How much for a US Water Buff hunt nowadays? I saw a show hunting Water Buffs in Florida, the habitat looked perfect with a alot of wetlands i'm guessing close to the Everglades. Hawaii used to have some wild Water Buffs but they got erradicated around 1900. Plenty wild Vancouver Bulls on Big Island though.
Cool post and pic -- thanks very much for sharing!! What's the story on the rifle used on the buffalo? It looks great! Also, what was the bull's reaction when hit -- did it remain operational for very long?
Thanks for the comments. The rifle was my 1886 repro. The bull dropped - done. I only hunt a few off the ranch and depending on the animals age they are usually $1500 -$2000 total hunt.
