I've not shot any bears, but I'd shoot them with my same 200 or 225 NAB load the deer and hogs hate, if it'll work in your mag box. The thing about the 358: pick whatever 200-250gr bullet shoots good, whther C&C, bonded, or barnes, and just go point it at whatever you want to die, and it'll most likely just roll over..no matter which brand/weight you pick....it's a medium velocity 35.
