JB ,, WOuld request your opinion.

recent purchase of a browning hi wall with vxr 1.5-4 for a May 2017 black bear hunt has me scrambling . new cartridge to me .

Federal 300 gr trophy bonded bear claws at 1800 fps shoot clover leafs , I know this is a tough bullet but the load is tame ........take them apart and use the bullet in another developed load around 2200 fps ? .....develop load for 350 gr hornady to reach potential ?

Will be hunting from blind over bait , not my first bear hunt and will be waiting for that good shot on the big guy. (300# + )

I know you have experimented and the volume of information out there for the many generations of rifles is just overwhelming . Suggest a direction ?

Apologize for fat finger typing on this iPad mini.....Thanks in advance
