The Bison has a Myrtle wood stock and a full bull barrel so it is kind of .... well I just weighed it and it is a hair over seven pounds with scope and mounts. I have tried wads in my other Whites and they did not seem to add or subtract to the accuracy. I have been testing different powder. I want to see just how hard I can push that large conical and still be accurate.

Doug I have the same problem. My target PVC portable stand is frozen to the ground. So I am going to put the whole thing on a toboggan next winter. Then I can pull the thing out to distances I want... Should make for more of a shooting experience next year.

The cool thing is the snow back in the woods. I can see where they are soaking up all the lead and bullets. So come spring I will have to walk slow back there and look for lead.
