That's what I was trying to clarify.
Most people call what we have "buffalo".
Our bison are not generally considered dangerous game, but didn't know if original poster was referring to US rifle or a true dangerous game gun for Africa.
Generally speaking, there's no need for anything bigger than a .375 for ANY game in America, including Alaska.
And you can get by with less here.
Africa would be a different matter, if you have the money to get there.
And a .375 is still fully viable on Cape buffalo.
But- if you don't even plan to ever go, no point in buying a major shoulder buster that runs even heavier.
