308.

Bolt gun for hunting, LMT MWS (AR-10-ish) for home protection.

Or, 6.5 Creedmoor for the same reasons.

You hunt bear, what 1% of the time if you don't live in the bush in Alaska or Canada? Most people don't hunt bear at all, and everything else has been done with a 308.

Why would you base your choices on bear hunting?

Done and done
