Re: Is a 6.5x54mm adequate for Water Buffalo?

In reply to:

I shot a rougue buff 30 years ago with a 243 using 85gn bthp projectiles.
Mind you I shot it from a vehicle so had plenty of protection just in case things went wrong.

Buff have been shot with 22rimfires,22hornets ,222rem,243,ect ect
Therefor in your opinion MICKEY the above are suitable for Aussie buff.





Sorry? I thought we were talking about a 6.5 with a 160 grain roundnose? Have you had a problem with them in your Swede? I have found them to be capable of penitrating a Moose end to end. The 6.5x54 was quite popular in Alaska and N. Canada for Polar Bear.
