learn that dead eye... also, work up the hunting skill so you can get the buffalo gun.

I got it the day after it came out and have been slow playing and I'm only 2/3 done.

and when the challenge is to kill a certain animal with your knife wound it with a pistol shot and it will be easier to cut.

any high powered rifle should work if you hit them between the eyes, dead eye helps with this as well

what i did was shoot it like 5 times with a medium to weak pistol, then lasso it. the lasso stuns him for a sec then i stab him. then i would lasso and stab again. usually took 2-3 times

boars can be found north of McFarlane's Ranch and also between Beecher's Hope and the Trading post in Tall Trees.

i was at 99.9% and had to do one more stranger task. i think it was called Aztec Gold and he was found in Sidewinder Gulch. this gave me a total of 19 strangers and 100%

I had the toughest time finding beavers. Then all of a sudden a pack of 5 of them came out of nowhere and I mowed them down.
