maybe I've been lulled to sleep, but I lose not a wink of it with the thought of a bloody backpack upon me and only armed with a 7mm-08, figure if I can keep my head and put a 140 TSX in a good spot I might be okay.
course I have taken my .338 sheep hunting before too, and reckon if I had to use it on a problem bear would rather have it instead.
but please don't misconstrue those thoughts as me looking down my nose at guys that choose a .30 cal or up for the same situation.
like boots, we have to find the chambering that makes us as an individual comfortable, not the size and brand your pard wears
sides at the end of the day, I think I'd make a pretty nice pile of bear scat!
