I've killed four...two with a bow, flinging 125gr thunderhead...both piled up real quick.

The other two were rifle kills....280/139 Hornie, '06/150 Grand slam.

Both bullets are still going....

Black bears are not hard to kill.

Guys shoot 600-700lb'rs in Pa, every year with .308's, .243's, shooting corelokts etc...
