“Bringing bison back to North American landscapes”

I wonder how powerful a rifle I’ll need for that?

I don't know but don't miss and hit a wolf.

I'd love to hunt one with my 1886 40-82 Winchester, but even that would be a little light...

The same one that slaughtered the great herds should do quite nicely.

Anything in .45-70 will work just fine.

.45-70 should do the trick. Back in the day, they used up to .50-110, but those were all black-power cartridges.
