AtkinsonBuffalo Bullet Company, Whittier, CA.
Had some of their bullets, really liked them in my 54 and used one an elk some years back and it worked very well indeed..
Are they still in business? Couldn't find much on the internet and I may have the wrong address and tel. number as its been disconnected.

CougarzI believe I heard they went out of business. Too bad I liked some of their offerings.

admiralOut of business for years. Sabot use by most modern ML'er hunters effectively killed them I suspect
I have a packet of their bullets with nitrated paper attached so you could make your own paper cartridge.

That's funny. I was just in one of the cabinets in the gun room the other day and found a little styrofoam container that held a dozen 400 grain Buffalo Bullet Minie balls for my 54 caliber muzzle loader.
It only has a couple bullets left in it and I remember using the others for Elk (a bull and a couple of cows) when I lived in Idaho Falls in the mid 80's

AtkinsonI had a couple of boxes of those for my 54. they were very accurate. My first go around with MLing was way back yonder and I shot an elk with them and a few deer perhaps, but not sure..I shot up the two boxes before posting this post, oh well, don't need to play with a bullet that's no longer available, wasted time IMO...Im having good luck with the Hornadys.
