Title: Bison with a CZ 550 Safari Classic
Post by: johnsmithers on July 26, 2018, 03:58:50 PM

After 23 years of applying for a bison in Delta Ak I finally drew one.  On StPatricks Day 2018 I shot my bison at 200 yards with a 550 Safari classic in 375 HH.  Acuracy and reliablilty at 10 degrees.  It was a good day

Just found this thread, not sure why you didn't get responses, that's quite an experience! Pack out must've been fun.

Oh dang, I am sad I missed this too! What an awesome experience and neat to hear how the rifle performed in those conditions!

NICE! Looks like you started applying when you were 5 years old  :D

Hunting Alaska has been my dream. Gave up years ago on getting a bison tag here in AZ (we have 2 herds)
