Ole Chuck Hawk may be full of schit on a lot of stuff but he's right when he says most hunters are way 'over gunned' (or 'over recoiled' to be more accurate). I'm kinda glad the OP plastered this story on almost every forum. I'm gonna bookmark it and use as proof against every one of the dumbasses who claim that you need the 'bigger' calibers/chamberings for those 'less than perfect' shots they always seem to get during hunting and how they make a difference on 'less than optimal placement'. What a [bleep] joke. Maybe my experience is unique but I find that shooting animals is the easiest damn part of the whole hunting experience. Locating and schlepping them out is the hard part... It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so... Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe. Stupidity has no average...

At that range they're still moving over 2500fps and carry almost 1600fpe. That said, I would prefer something larger. My Ruger #1 in .280 Rem would do fine. Coyote Hunter - NRA Patriot Life, NRA Whittington Center Life, GOA, DAD - and I VOTE! No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's. A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

The scene.... A VERY large, probably once in a lifetime for me, fat, bowlegged, male black bear. Quartering away and about to get away, 350 yards out. I would not have tried this shot with a 223, 243, or any other sub 30 caliber bullet, and I was lovin my uberfast wildcat big 33 when the opportunity came along to poke this guy, and hard. Ask yourselves after you look at my photos of this years bear and read my report if you would have made an attempted shot with a rifle that was much less than mine in power and capabilities. What would YOU have wanted in your hands, with the always very real possibility of a less than ideal shot placement? And PA- LEEZE don't pipe up with that "I only take perfect shots" crap. Real hunting in the real woods, for really big and mature animals, does not allow that kind of selectivity. Two words to describe you, uber douche.

If a hip/vertebrae shot is what happened, most anything with a decent bullet would have busted that bone and put the bear down in the same manner.
