Bison (buffalo) with a 30-06

There is a big difference between how the merchant hunters killed off game, and how we, as responsible hunters, hunt.

The 30-06 is a versatile cartridge. However, we must remember to use a bullet designed for the game we are hunting. IF i was going to use a 30-06 for buffalo, I would use a 200 or 220 gr bullet designed for hunting large bears. However, you need to have a barrel with a rate of twist that is able to stabilize these heavier bullets. I also would not be shooting a buffalo at 250 yards with a 30-06.
