So I am considering moving up from my Texan.45 to a more powerful gun. Now since XPis basically off the table I'm thinking either the bush buck or the extreme both in .45 . My Texan is adequate (3 deer kills last year) but more is always better so who wins this match up??

If you dont mind just upgrading your texan, check out African Air Ordnance. There a little expensive but they make some pretty cool stuff and are getting a lot of power out of the Texan.

I sort of went backwards, Ive had two Texans ended up getting PBBA .457. Although I shot Nielsen ammo 372gr at MOA 100yd, I wanted to shoot lighter/faster, but remain 3000psi. I also wanted a more traditional rifle with ability to make changes such as fill pressure, spring changes and even barrel. I had an Extreme and they are top notch. Very powerful, some options for stocks, barrel length and tuning at different pressures. Bushbuck is also proving to be a great rifle given the EBR scores, Kip's success, and recent review by AEAC. I like that it has two power settings, like my Sam 909 and PW on Texan.
In addition, I concur with Wager. AAO (Jeremy) was great to deal with and provides some options. Spring change and increasing to a 3500psi will also provide some great results for short $$$. There are Maddog stocks for this as well. Im finding that Im settling more on what type/weight projectile I would like to shoot and for what purpose, to guide me. You have some good options there and probably cant go wrong!
