never shot actual hammerhead ammo but have shot lots of handloads using simular bullets and that load will shoot through about any buffalo. Should be more then plenty for what your doing.

[that load will shoot through about any buffalo. ]

Besides ensuring there's NO other animal behind the one you shoot at, you'd be well advised to tie a pillow to yore butt, B4 touching one of them rounds off !

Go back to the Garrett website and read the reviews.  Those are real people and real animals they used them on.  I think I'd take their word for it.

Garrett and Buffalo Bore are some of the nastiest ammo that you can shoot out of your Guide Gun. I believe that Cape Buffalo have been taken with theses loads. I've never done it, but others have, and I think that you are all set. Probably absolutely no fun sighting in off the bench, though! Show us some pics of your bison!

If you get the chance I'd lioke to know what they chrono from the GG.  I plan on getting some for an AK hunt in 2009.
