I 've got a permit to hunt bison in March never having hunted bison before I'm looking for some advice. I've have a 300 win and it seems to like 200 gr nosler partitions.

I suspect that the bison is toast !!!

It will work!

No worries as long as you place the bullet where you want it. The Partition will treat you well.

I just shot a nice cow (meat shoot, not a fair chase hunt), with a 250 grain Partition 44 magnum. The shot was taken at 40 yards and smashed the neck just behind the skull. She dropped straight down and barely quivered. The bullet divested itself of the primary partition and the secondary core retained full weight and was still encapsulated within the jacket. The bullet was just under the hide on the far side. Picture perfect terminal ballistics.

I've been eating bison as a beef replacement for a couple of years now. Much healthier and no mad cow worries!

Good luck to ya.

My .300 Weatherby with the same bullet worked just fine on mine. Lawdog

The .300 Win will work fine on Bison although for the largest terrestrial mammal in North America, and having hunted my share of bison, I would have to advise that you switch to a heavy Barnes X-bullet. If the hunt is truly fair chase (Utah's Henry Mountains, Custer State Park in SD, or a few places in Canada), I would also advise that a quick shot or two be placed into the boiler room and only then, if time permits, get fancy with the spine or atlas joint shot to anchor the beast before he/she gets into any thick stuff that is going to make meat and hide recovery a pain. If you have any other questions, feel free to drop me a PM

Best,
