250 grains are on the light side for buffalo. Use them on plains game and get some 300 gr. for buff. | |||

While they would probably kill a buff on a broad side shot I too would recommend using 300 gr bullets, softs and solids. I like the Federal 250 grain load for everything in the Lower 48. It is about a 3 quarter load. Shoots good. DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY | |||

Hunts are too expensive to risk on marginal bullets... Get some premium 300gr bullets for buff. | |||

I took the TBBC on a plainsgame hunt in 02. I shot eland, zebra, wildebeest, kudu and waterbuck. I didnt get any exit wounds on any of them and recovered all the slugs. Complete mushrooms, but I would have liked to see an exit wound. The eland I took was about 1,600lbs, smaller than a buff, so I'd opt for the heavier rounds.
