44-77 and the Buffalo Runners

[Kurt]

I think the flatter trajectory had something to do with it also.
I have only taken three Bisons. Two using the .44-77 and one with the .44-90 BN and all three I used the same bullet a 485 gr with the original profile and all three the shot hit very close at the blond spot behind the elbow with the same lung shots. You could probably cover all with your hand. The .44-77 did it's job but the .44-90 put him down with one shot very fast were he only staggered less than 100 yards. The .44-77 took 2 and 3 for the last one with one behind the ear.
think the added velocity of the 90 might have a bearing on it but I can't say for sure.
