Bullet selection

That’s all I shoot out of my 7mm, and my hunting buddy as well.  Accurate, and great penetration,  expansion and weight retention.  Plenty for a bison, cow or bull.

Sounds great! Thank you very much!

Mine was a smaller cow but I used a 30-06. She dropped immediately. Keep in mind that a mature cow is half the size of a mature bull so you don't really need a big gigantic rifle. If you have a rifle that you use for bull elk that you are comfortable with, use it. No need to re-invent something. Also keep in mind that the vast majority of the bison killed on the Kaibab are probably killed at archery range very close to a salt or water. You don't need a ton of energy if you are staying close to your target. Avoid the major bone and make it count and any standard big game caliber will be fine. That 7 Mag is plenty.
