Tom,

I assume you know more than me, but I know there are many opportunities out there for handicapped hunters....I personally know NM has some good options....better seasons...better draws etc...

400" AZ elk, very nice, 10yr plan sounds about right too, hopefully one day that'll be me, though I think I'll draw a bow tag before a rifle....

I think the .340 with 225 or 250 is enough to kill and buffalo, though if I'm backing up my dad with it while he's bowhunting that could be another story, I'm thinking 275 or 300gr would stop an angry buff better than any 225 or 250s, not sure though it would do that much better.....458lott would be more ideal for that.
