Our fave for buff was the Alaska Bullet Works Kodiak 450 grain heavy full metal jacket bullet loaded to around 2000 in 45-70 and 2150 fps in 45-90.

Nothing wrong with those ballistics.

If I had a .45/70 for dangerous game. Or a .458 Win Mag. For both I would try a 480 gr instead of a 500 gr to see if the velocities could be increased. Or as above a 450 gr projectile. All of suitable type and construction.
