A guy I know shoots 2-3 year. He uses a 30-30 Marlin

Depending on range, anything modern should do the job.

Id use a 45/70 just to map the wound channel

not the h-point..
accuracy will count,as will penetration.
iirc Lloyd smale has shot a few buffalo and has some good observations on his results.
