Sagebrush Outfitters is also a good supplier of premium grade cast bullets. I test drove a box of 50 money bullets (.45 cal.) before I bought the mould, and they performed well; reasonably priced, too.
BTW I've never hunted buffalo, but the snowshoes can definitely be an asset. A toboggan along w/ the snowshoes is a good deal for dragging large carcasses in deep snow, too; but then you probably already knew that, too.
