[QUOTE="RAGGED EDGE, post: 2213859, member: 49669"] A while back I killed one in s. CO with a muzzleloader. A .44 330-grain Harvester in a sabot boosted by 100 grains of Swiss 2-Fg did everything I needed. At 80 yards it went straight through the left shoulder, out the other side and into the wall of the canyon the herd ran into.. Buff staggered around in a small circle for about 20 seconds and keeled over. I couldn't get reloaded fast enough to end it sooner. All this was after a foot chase of about 2 miles across a 40,000 acre ranch. My buddy, hunting with a hi-wall in .45-70 shot his 4 times before it expired. His loads were pushing 405-grain cup-n-core bullets about 1600 fps. FWIW none of his bullets exited. [/QUOTE]
