What? You're going with the long brass Brad! I was thinking .308 or 7-08 would work just fine but nothing wrong with a firebreather if that's what you what to shoot.

Very nice bear no matter what you shoot it with. Congrats!


Just proposing the most common of Western Cartridges, not saying I'd have used it.

The 308 would have been my choice cause that's what I use, but a 257 rob, 260, 7-08... heck, anything within reason works on black bears.

But I'm relatively secure in my manhood grin
