What caliber would be good for a Bison Hunt? They are pretty big.

There's a limited draw hunt in northern BC and they actually spell that out, you need to have so many foot pounds of energy by law. Haven't looked in a while but I think a 30-06 with heavier bullets just makes it. Guys I know have been successful with 300 mags. If I was so lucky I think I'd take my Ruger 77 mk11 350 rem mag with 200 gr ttsx'.

Bought a ticket to support amateur wrestling
Posted By: Magnum_Bob Re: BISON HUNT - 12/11/20
45 -2:7/8" sharps 74 540 gr paper patched bullet 110 grs Fg black powder. Worked 140 years a go and still works today. Mb

.44-77, .45-70 or .50-90 would do the trick. Millions of 'em can testify to that.
Posted By: jeffbird Re: BISON HUNT - 12/11/20
Bought a ticket.

Friendly suggestion, the link only allows the purchase of one ticket.

I would have bought more if it was an option.

So, whoever set it up might want to make a change in the settings.

Good luck with your fundraiser.
Posted By: crittrgittr Re: BISON HUNT - 12/11/20
If I won I would hunt it with a stick and string if the ranch would allow it.
Posted By: slumlord Re: BISON HUNT - 12/11/20
Bull or cow?
Posted By: wyowinchester Re: BISON HUNT - 12/12/20
It is for a bull


Talked with the admin. He said they don't have an option for more with this site.
Posted By: muleshoe Re: BISON HUNT - 12/12/20
I would most certainly buy one if I could get a link to open for me.

Any other options?

I was going to use a .300 Weatherby behind the ear if given the chance.

Drive past the Durham ranch regularly... amazing spread of buffalo out on the Wyoming prairie. Its a neat site.

that is as easy as I can make it.
Posted By: muleshoe Re: BISON HUNT - 12/12/20
Okay got one.

My kid says to get off the Safari and do the google chrome. That worked.


Will a 444 with 300gr bullets work?

When does the hunt take place?
Posted By: 257_X_50 Re: BISON HUNT - 12/12/20
Just bought one. Used to take a girl friend’s kid to practice and meets.
Bilateral slow knee amputee.
Kid has all the heart in the world. Did well.
Wrestling means a lot.
Thank you.

Thanks for the support. Back too the top one time.

Take my 76’ 50-95. Ought to drop a big shaggy.
Posted By: Tarkio Re: BISON HUNT - 12/13/20
I got a couple. Hopefully all you guys are wasting your money. For a good cause though.

Anyone else having trouble logging in? Used the forgot password option and it doesn’t have a record of my email address.

Back up ^^^^^

When is the drawing? Forgot about this after buying a couple tickets.
Posted By: wyowinchester Re: BISON HUNT - 03/25/21
The site says 23 days.
Posted By: RiverRider Re: BISON HUNT - 03/25/21
One in 250 ain't great odds, but the payoff is irresistable. I have some .35 Whelen loaded up with 225 Accubonds and ready to rock!
Posted By: Kingthing0307 Re: BISON HUNT - 03/25/21
Purchased. Thanks for the link and it looks like the $ is going to a great association.

When was this drawing supposed to take place?

The site says end date is 4/17/21. Not sure if that’s the draw date though.
Posted By: wyowinchester Re: BISON HUNT - 04/08/21
The drawing will take place at the WAWA state wrestling tournament. I think Friday 16, or Saturday 17.
Posted By: RiverRider Re: BISON HUNT - 04/22/21
So I can log in to the site but there is NO information as to the drawing having taken place or who the winner is. What's up with that? I think a little transparency is in order.
Posted By: wyowinchester Re: BISON HUNT - 04/22/21
Sent a text to the people. Hopefully they will get it up there.
Yes they drew a name.
No it wasn't me.
No I don't know who it was.

Bison lives matter grin
Posted By: wyowinchester Re: BISON HUNT - 04/24/21
It's on the event page.

Congratulations to our winner:

Tristan Carpenter

Dang. Already had a spot picked out for the mount.

I hope the wrestling team made out well.
Posted By: wyowinchester Re: BISON HUNT - 04/24/21
Thanks for the support. The plan was to make enough to reproduce every year. We'll see.
