Curl,

I have a question, since it sounds like you've shot the mentioned Kodiak 45-70. Wasn't that caliber originally developed to shoot the American bison? If so, why isn't it considered "enough gun" to kill a cape buffalo or lion? Just wondering.

I think it was developed to shoot native americans, not bison.

But it will shoot a bison or cape buff, if its good at it thats another matter. With the load its regulated for its not that hard hitting, but it will bring one down eventually.

If it will go down before you or not, thats the difference of a DG rifle.
