Dear
ammo people, I would like to
share my experience with your ammo. I have a 45/70 Marlin rifle
and boy I could not believe how well your ammo shoots! Here is a
picture of a 1-1/2" grouping at 100 yards.

the exit made by the 300 Win Mag. I am holding a 300 Win Mag round
for size comparison.

Tim,
I am sending a couple of pictures of an exit wound in the rib cage
of a Bull Elk.
I
shot the bull at 286 yards with my 300 Win Mag. When I made
it over to the Bull I found him down, but quite alive. I
pulled my 500 JRH revolver and fired another round into the bull.
I was shooter your 440 grain Flat Point Hard Cast loaded to 950
FPS and the exit wound was MUCH larger than the exit made by the
300 Win Mag.
Tim,
you load ammo to a performance level that is not available
from any other manufacturer. Buffalo Bore is the real deal.
Great
ammo keep up the great work!

| Tim,
Here is a photo of a Black Bear I
got in northern Manitoba the first week in June of this year.
I was using your 405 grain expanding load as you had recommended
it in the past.
The bear came into the bait and
stood up on a barrel with his back to me. I was in a tree
stand, 30 yards away. I shot him just below the center line
between the shoulder blades. The bullet broke his spine,
tore up his lungs, and came out his throat, severing the windpipe
and major arteries. He fell over stone dead, never moved or
felt a thing.
This was a 6'6" bear, roughly
350 pounds. This is the second Black Bear I have gotten with
your cartridge and the results are devastating and immediate.

Dear
Buffalo
Bore,
Included
is a picture of an excellent specimen of a Nunivak Island (Alaska)
Musk Ox that I took during the spring hunt this past February
2007. The animal was hit with a single through and
through traditional lung shot at approximately 75 yards (by GPS)
and expired in less than a minute; moving only a dozen or so yards
after being struck. The Wild West Guns Master Guide
conversion on my stainless steel Marlin Guide Gun performed
perfectly with your mighty Buffalo Bore 430gr L.F.N. – G.C.
.45-70 ammunition. During the wet, frigid hunt, I did
not have the slightest problem with my converted Marlin rifle
or your marvelous ammunition.
Extensive practice with your ammunition in Fairbanks, AK,
in temperatures as low as -30 degrees Fahrenheit before the hunt
gave me the greatest confidence your product would not fail me
during the moment of truth. Thank
you for giving me the “power” to complete such a wonderful
adventure.

| Hello, my name is Jimmy Elixson and I just want to say thanks for your
45-70+p loads. I shot a 427lb black bear just a few weeks ago, with your
350 gr. bullet and wow! I made a straight on shot at about 4 feet in the head and the bullet went in under the left eye and went thru the head and all the way down be side the back back bone and I
dug the bullet out of the back left ham. My bear was 5 feet 3
inches from nose to tail on it side laying down and your bullet was about 3 inches from making a complete pass thru on that
bear.
I have hunted black bears a long time and this is by far the best ammo my buddies and I have ever seen. I bought ammo back in late November just to try something new and I'm glad I
did. And I love how it shoots in my Marlin guide gun. I'll be a customer of yours for many more hunting seasons to come. Oh, I almost forgot to mention, I weighed the bullet when I pulled it out and it still weighed 337 grains. Once
again thanks.

To all at Buffalo Bore
I used your 45-70 buffalo bore 350 grain bullet and took this buffalo at 75 yards – blowing out both lungs and exiting the other side with a ¾” size hole. I dropped him immediately with one shot. Because of the awesome knockdown power and accuracy of your ammunition I will not use any other kind from now on.
Just thought you would like to know how I feel about your product.
Thanks,

Jack Huntington shooting a .500 JRH
revolver with Buffalo Bore factory ammo (425 gr. bullet @ 1350 fps)

shoulder at 40 yards. Full
penetration. Asian Buffalo went down in 30 yards.

Attached is a picture of my bison
shot in early May 2006 while on a hunt with Jack Huntington. I
used Jack's prototype gun from Magnum Research and the Buffalo
Bore 440 grain load @ 950fps.
First shot was through the lungs, perfectly broadside, at about 30
yards. The animal ran about another 30 yards or so (as did I) and
I got a second shot within inches of the first. At the second
shot, it spun around 180 degrees with blood already pouring out of
it's nose, and dropped.
One of the 440s was recovered under the skin on the off-side, and
the other passed through. I think that one of the bullets stayed
in because it just barely clipped the meat on the shoulder. Both
shots broke ribs coming and going.
I did shoot it a third time while on the ground, through the top
of the neck. Bullet broke neck and was found under the skin on the
throat.
I've also included a picture of the lungs, with a .500 JRH
cartridge for scale ..... I know some people will have a difficult
time believing that you can get a good wound channel at low
velocities, but here's proof.

To all at BuffaloBore.com
I have a attached a picture of the buffalo I shot with my Sharps 45-70 using your 350 grain ammunition.
The ammunition performed perfectly with accuracy and tremendous knockdown power. I shot the buffalo at 75 yards - blowing out both lungs with a 3/4" exit wound on the opposite shoulder dropping the animal immediately.
I know that I will be using your ammunition on all of my future hunts.
I just thought you would like to hear about my Colorado buffalo hunt using your ammunition.
Thanks

This 238 pound TX hog dropped to one round of your 45 Colt 325 grain. The round struck the inside corner of the right eye and exited behind the last rib on the opposite side of the animal. The range was around 25 yards. Awesome penetration from a pistol round!
This Buffalo was taken with your 45-70 430 grain penetrator. Two quick broadside shots at 116 yard on the rangefinder completely passed through. When the animal turned facing away I took two more quick shots at the base of the tail. One of these rounds was recovered under the jaw bone. Only the angled portion of the bullet was gone and the remaining base weighs 398 grains. The second rear to front shot hit the opposing shoulder, breaking it. This impact also broke the bullet that was recovered in the chest cavity in two equal pieces that weigh right at 200 grains each. In comparison, another hunter used a different ammo with the same weight solids at 1400 fps on a similar animal. His furthest shot was 57 yards. The animal received 5 broadside shots before it went down and one finisher was necessary. Only one of these bullets penetrated though. Your Buffalo Bore ammo clearly has the edge on big heavy animals!
Thanks for great products

Here is a pic of my Alaskan grizzly I harvested in September. First I shot him through the chest at 300 yards with a 300 RUM and my partner hit him in one shoulder and out the other with a 458 LOTT. Then he ran straight up a mountain for about 300 feet. We couldn’t see him but we could see the trees shaking where he was thrashing about. After about 45 minutes he stopped thrashing so I grabbed my 45/70 with Buffalo Bore 500 grain solids, and we climbed up and around until we were 100 feet above him and started down. I got within 50 feet before I could see his body and just to be safe I shot him again in the shoulder, he turned and roared at us and I hit him once more in the back of the head and the slug exited his lower jaw. Both 45/70 slugs went clean through. These animals are extremely tough and I wouldn’t go after them with inferior ammo. Thanks for your great product.

I purchased your ammo (350 gr.
45-70) from Cabela's and then checked out your website after
getting it off the box.
My bear scaled at 451 lbs. field
dressed with approx. live weight of 500 lbs. The dogs had it
bayed up in these open hardwoods. I took my shot from about
50 yards and put him right down. Once again, thanks for a
super product. Your ammo is top shelf.

Just wanted to drop you a line and say how effective the 158 Gr. 357 ammunition is, I've taken 2 bucks with it this year. These bullets are certainly over achievers, the 1st buck dropped in his tracks @ 65 yards, the 2nd ran about 70 yards before folding up only because I had to rush my shot causing the bullet to be slightly off the mark. I attached a picture of the 2nd buck, he was shot at 60 yards. The picture shows the bullet entrance, which came in at a angle and lodged just under the hide on the opposite hip. Once again thanks for this high quality product.

The elk was shot from about 25 yards, full broadside. I used the 325LBT WFN in a Ruger Bisley worked over by Hamilton Bowen. The bullet penetrated completely and took the blood
vessels off the top of the heart. The elk reared back and staggered about 20 yards before lying down and never got up.
The fallow deer was shot from about 30 yards, with the same ammo and gun. I hit him a bit high, and he dropped immediately to the shot and never moved from the place he fell. He needed to be finished off, but that was my shooting, not the ammo. The bullet penetrated completely.
They are both cull animals- funny
antlers on the fallow, only one on the elk. They taste like
the ones with impressive racks. Good shot placement on the
elk resulted in a quick kill. The fallow took a bit of
finishing off, but your ammo wasn't the problem- its where I put
the bullet.

I finally shot my
Montana moose after over two months of scouting and hunting. I
shot him twice at about 70 yards with an open sight Marlin 1895CB
using your 350-grain 45-70 cartridge. The first shot double lunged
him, penetrated the back shoulder blade and exited the back side,
albeit with a small hole. The second shot, which I now know wasn't
necessary but I didn't want him going anywhere, hit him in the
upper neck, shattered the neck bone, and the bullet lodged just
under the hide on the back side. This bullet I recovered and will
send you a pic when I figure out a good place to take one. The
bullet looks great and weighs about 293 grains (on a poor scale)
for 83% retention. I will weigh it on a powder scale and get you
an exact weight.
Thanks again for great bullets. I found I was able to put your
bullets on a pie plate at 100 and 200 yards with open sights. I
don't like the stock open sights on the Marlin and will be
installing better ones, but even with these I can be pretty
accurate. Interestingly, the stock Marlin sights don't have enough
downward rear adjustment in the little sliding insert to put your
bullets on target at 100 yards. I had to completely remove the
little insert in the back buckhorn sight, then move the back sight
down on the ramp as far as it would go. Fortunately, that put me
right on at 100 and 200 yards. With better sights, I would not be
surprised if it could be a 300 yard gun.

| I just wanted you to know I used your ammo
* on a recent trip to Africa and am very impressed with the results. I even had complete penetration through a 2300lb Eland who dropped in less than 100 yds. My Brother used Hornandy XTP JHP on his Eland with the same shot placement and trailed it for 5 miles and then follow up shots to finish it due to lack of penetration and over expansion in the shoulder muscle. You can bet he will be using your ammo on the next trip. I also used your ammo* on other game with the same great results. You have a great load here and a loyal customer, keep up the good work. Thanks Jeff Sanders

Tim,
Your .38-55 ammunition is awesome! This is the first season hunting with my new Winchester Trails End Hunter Octagon in .38-55 caliber. The 20" barrel makes it balance perfectly and it's a pleasure to shoot as well as carry. The best part is that with the modern metallurgy in the barrel construction, I can shoot this nostalgic caliber but loaded to it's true potential such as your Item # 11, JFN 255 Grain Expander loads. I was first impressed with the accuracy of this round while sighting the rifle in but you really won me over with my experience this hunting season.
The first day of New York's Deer season found this small six pointer about 50-60 yards out from me in some thick brush. I pulled up, found my spot and pulled the trigger. The .38-55 dropped the buck in a heap! The bullet completely passed through the chest cavity and didn't even cause that much meat damage. The deer never moved.
The real testimony comes from this following story. Same deal, it was the first week of New York's bear season in the newly expanded Delaware County. We had a few inches of fresh snow and I came across Bear tracks. I followed them for roughly two hours before I started to realize that I was close. The tracks were very fresh and I could just sense the bears presence. I was in a very thick area of tangled brush that went up both sides of a steep ravine and I heard a crash behind me and turned to find that I had apparently walked past the bear and kicked it out. It was too thick for a shot put I kept the bead on him and waited for an opportunity. He was about 90 yards or so when he turned slightly to the left to change direction and I squeezed off a round. The 255 grain Buffalo Bore bullet slammed into his left shoulder causing him to do a summersault. I shot again but the first shot was all I needed. The bear went less than 10 feet. When skinning the bear I found that the bullet entered the left shoulder, passed through the cavity, went through the right shoulder and came to rest just under the skin on the other side. The bullet had performed flawlessly and mushroomed perfectly. The bullet still weighs an amazing 251 grains!
I have included some pictures and want to thank you for a great product!

This buffalo was taken with a .45 LC
built by John Linebaugh on a Ruger Bisley frame. The load was a
325 gr. LBT LFN bullet at 1525 fps loaded by Buffalo Bore for the
few revolvers that can handle it.
The first shot was at 45 yards. The
bullet broke the near upper leg and penetrated the heart just
below the exact center, lodging in the off shoulder. The second
shot was in the high flank going away and we were unable to
determine the bullet path. The buffalo ran about 80 yards before
stopping and moved on before we were able to see him in the bush.
We got a brief look at him the next time he stopped about 150
yards further on, but could not get a shot. After about 400 yards
of tracking the game scout (the last man in line) spotted him
about 80 yards off to the side of the track, standing with his
head down. He had obviously circled back but by this time was too
sick to do much. Even so it took several shots to the chest from
close in before he went down and I gave him the spine finisher
visible in the photo. The spine shot was recovered down in the
brisket area.
These are incredibly tough animals,
even when well hit.

Just a note to let you know how
impressed I am with your ammo. This moose was taken with 1
shot through the lungs, broadside at 230 yards. The bullet -
45-70 500 grain Buffalo Bore. Although he was about to fight
another bull, to keep his cows, and being pumped up with
adrenaline, your 500 grain load knocked him right off his feet.

Here are photos of a whitetail doe
and an antelope that I shot last season with the Jack Huntington
.500 Linebaugh and your 950 fps loads. The whitetail was
shot in the neck from 50 yards. The bullet missed the
vertebrae and still dropped the doe in its tracks. The
antelope was hit in the rear-end running away at 35 yards and the
bullet exited near the point of the left shoulder. That's
about 28" of penetration.

a dark night the bear attempted to break through the cabin door.
They tried to scare it off but the bear persisted in its attempts
to enter the cabin. Mike shoved his .444 Marlin through a crack in
the door and fired. The next morning the bear was found
dead, about 50 feet from the cabin. The 335 gr. hardcast
Buffalo Bore load had gone through its chest. |

On Nov. 7, 2004, after a full
day’s hunting near Batnuni Lake in British Columbia’s north
central Cariboo, we were heading back to the ranch when we
jumped this bull running through the aspens. At about 60 yards,
offhand, I put a single 270 grain .444 Marlin round through the
point of his elbow. The bullet completely shredded his heart,
exiting high on the offside between the 4th and 5th rib. After
the hit the bull turned, hopped about 30 yards onto a knoll, and
lay down to die.
With the six inches of snow on the ground we slid him down the
slope, long-lined him out to a clear spot and field dressed him.
As it was about to get dark we tobogganed him the mile back to
the ranch gate, and hung him on the tractor forks for skinning
and halving in the morning. To give you an idea of his size
hanging off the tractor, I’m 6’5” and his whole hind end
is still on the ground. Didn’t measure the span but he had six
tines per palm. Your Buffalo Bore 270s are excellent, next to no
meat damage, and recoil is surprisingly mild.
I’ve been shooting this .444 since 1979, and these are the
best rounds I have ever put through it. They beat hell out of my
old handloads using .44 magnum bullets, which until recently
have been the only ones available for this otherwise excellent
cartridge.
I received a box of .444 Marlin 270 grainers and a box of 300s
from Buffalo Bore only two days before we headed to the ranch
for the hunt. Can’t wait to see what the 300s will do next
season.

Hey Tim,
Here is a photo of a fine whitetail buck I took in Minnesota using your Heavy .38-55 in a Winchester 1885 Limited, single-shot.
I shot him quartering away at about 50 yards and the 255 grain JFN bullet entered between the last two ribs, and came to rest just under the skin on the far side, just behind the shoulder.
The 195# (dressed) buck managed to make it about 40 yards despite having a totally destroyed liver and far-side lung. One tough buck meets a tougher bullet! I recovered the bullet and it mushroomed perfectly!
Thanks for making a great product!!

Tim,
I thought I'd let you know
we had a good bear season. The 400 gr. .458 Win ammo you sent me
worked superb My client got so rattled he a hit a big boar in the
guts, the hind feet, hind leg and tail before running out of ammo for
his .338. If I hadn't planted a 400 gr. bullet on his shoulder
just before he got into the alders it might have become messy.
The bullet was balled up under the hide on the off side.
I just did a test of
penetration suing Hornady .458 Lott ammo. (22" bbl) Your
400 gr. .458 Win loads outpenetrated the factory 500 gr. Hornady .458
Lott by a good margin when fired from the same rifle!
500 gr. Hornady
2119 fps - .458 Lott
450 gr. Buffalo Bore 2256 fps - .458 Win
I carry your ammo
exclusively in both my .45-70 and my .458 Win when hunting large
bears.
Thanks

| I received your ammunition in time for my last chance at the
Wisconsin season bear hunt. This hunt was 8 years in the planning and the
prospects were getting worse every day. I’d given up on the bow and hoped your loads would reward me with a bear from my favorite rifle. A Model 94 Winchester chambered in 38-55. The factory loads are insufficient for a large black bear and my 16” barrel doesn’t help matters. The 200lb. Boar came from behind my stand and after a quick assessment decided passing by me wasn’t a good idea. He turned and quartered away, there was 2 hours left to hunt in my season and I made my decision. 20 yards and 255 grains later he lay not an inch from where he was hit. I was waiting for him to get up but that never happened. Thanks for reviving a great round and for providing sportsmen a bridge to our hunting heritage.

While driving up the
creek bottom in Alaska on my ATV looking for bears on the ridge
line, I ran into this young Grizzly on the trail. He was about
50 yards away and had no clue I was there. After jumping off my
ATV and really focusing on my shot placement, I let one round
off hitting the young fella right behind the shoulder. Needless
to say after the shot hit its mark, the bear ran about thirty
yards never knowing what hit him. The 350 gr. JFN did the job
and passed through breaking the opposite side shoulder. I'll
never use anything except your product in my 45-70. I
consistently shoot 2" groups at 100 yards with the rifle
and just love it. The bear squared 7' 8".

Dear Tim
I took this nice bull with your 500 Linebaugh load with the 525 grain bullet. The
kill was quite spectacular. I shot this bull from about 40 yards just behind the shoulder clipped the heart and exited the off side . My outfitter Jim Doran with Montana Hunting Company said that this was the most impressive kill that he had ever
witnessed on these Buffalo with a handgun
THANKS for these most impressive loads

Tim,
I had to send you some comments about your 45-70 Magnum ammo. I just returned from a Black Bear hunt in Saskatchewan where I got the bear that is attached. I had gotten a Marlin 1895 in 45-70 for the hunt and ordered some of your 405 grain expander loads based upon your advice. I had read about your company in some hunting magazines and wanted better performance than the original 1300 fps Government loading.
I shot this bear from a tree stand at about 25 yards through the heart and lungs. The animal was spun around 180 degrees and flipped over on its back. One leg kicked (involuntary I think) and it was dead. I've never seen a bullet or cartridge perform like this! You were absolutely correct about this round for bear hunting. I plan on taking this rifle elk hunting next fall in Montana with the 430 grain penetrator load you also recommended. My Canadian guide was so impressed he plans on getting a Marlin and your ammo when he has to track down a wounded bear in the bush.
Keep up the good work and thanks.

Tim:
I ordered a box of your 444 Marlin 270 JFP about two months ago for my new Marlin model 444. I shot a big Whitetail doe at 40 yards. Real bad situation for the doe. She didn't take a step. She didn't even kick after dropping in her tracks. Same story for a nice 8 point. I shot him at @ 150 yards at dusk while he was walking away from me. The bullet entered in front of the right hind quarter and forcefully exited through the left front shoulder. The exit wound was the discussion of the night at the camp. He dropped in his tracks, with no bodily movement after hitting the ground. Every one at the hunting camp shoots magnums such as 257 Wby. 300 WSM, 7mm Rem. and 300 Win. Mag. I think by next season that will change. It looks like those who can afford a new gun will be shooting lever actions with your ammo.
I also appreciate the time you spent e-mailing me and responding to my questions. You and your products are a breath of fresh air in today's super corporate society in which ammo manufactures will say anything to sell their products. The performance of your ammo speaks for itself. My 444 shot groups under an inch at 100 yards. You have gained a lifetime customer and many more after I tell my friends about your products.
It's great to see you are coming out with a wide range of pistol cartridges which will eventually make their way to every handgun in my family.

your wonderful hot loads. The deer was 75 yards away. It was hit

1700 fps out of the rifle and the bullet went all the way
through the deer. |

Just wanted to give you some
performance feedback on your 8A, 45-70 ammo. I shot this bull on
9 September at 40 yds with a Marlin 1895 with your 430 grain
hard cast load. The bullet enter the right shoulder, penetrated
the spine, and exited the opposite side. It lifted him up and
threw him backwards, he didn't take a step. It was incredible.
After butchering him I found a 2"x4" hole in his right
shoulder blade, and there was a crack running vertically down
the entire length of the shoulder blade. The spine had a hole in
it that I poked my index finger through. This is an awesome
round and is the only rifle I don't handload for. Thanks for a
great product.
Sincerely,

Tim,
I just bought this stainless
Ruger Bisley in .45 Colt from
Shedhorn Sports here in Ennis, MT. They had one box
of your 325 gr. LBT -LFN ammo on hand so I got that too
and went to the range. The gun seemed to like the ammo.
The third evening I carried it, this 250 lb.
boar showed up
45 yards below me and stopped for a quartering away shot.
The bullet hit halfway back on the right side
and exited out
the upper left front leg. The bear ran about 70 yards
and
dropped.

The Blue Wildebeest shot in Africa
in July 2002. I used your 45.70 350 gr. ammo in my 1895
Marlin. As you can see, it was shot in the shoulder and
was a 1 shot kill.
This was an SCI Gold Medal animal, #91 in the
record book (of many thousands) and had a 53" spread.
