    Well they do like to mangle the English language.

    We know they are bison.
    But no one calls it a Bison Rifle.
    And they even shorten it to buflo rifle to save time !

    Well i always wanted a Buffalo ( bison ) rifle in a proper Buflo caliber and that's what the 44-77 was.
    Before the 45-70 came along true 44 caliber was the king of the big bores.

    Then the U.S. military spent a lot of time and money working out that the straight cased 45-70 was the best option for their new service caliber.
    Then there was a flood of similar straight cases until they decided bottleneck was a good idea again
