Heres the deal. After many years of want and wait I have acquired a 1874 Sharps replica in 45-70. Now the next step is a guided buffalo hunt in BC and tip one of them big beasties over off the cross sticks and if its not 400yds walk back till it is. Can anyone give me info on a good guide, where etc?

Find a buffalo ranch, they may let you harvest it.

I’ve heard of local guides offering services, equipment, for existing tag holders.
I can’t recall name, but certain it’s close to a Pink Mnt.
Good Luck
Black and White Picture with Sharps would look real cool

Montana might be a place to look, there is some free range on a couple reservations.
Chaz Bends would be one name to look into.

In BC: Sikanni River Outfitters( as mentioned previously) & Besa River Outfitters, both in the Pink Mtn. area
Yukon and Alberta have outfitters for Wood Bison.

Very cool rifle! Worthy aspirations for it as well.
