I chased a herd of water buff for four hours before getting a shot at Wilderness lodge in TN. It was about as hunt as you could get. We got charged twice. I used my .450 Marlin with a 420gr cast bullet. The critter I killed was 6' high at the shoulder. My son is ready to go after one with a handgun and of course I will provide back up. reflex264

I was a handgun hunter, when handgun wasn't cool.....
