Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Copper ammo and black bear—30-06 or 6.5 creedmoor?

I would use a 180g Hornady Interlock, flat base, in the '06. It will saw up a bear like you had took a chain saw to it. Second choice would be a 180g Partition. I like a lot more shock on the animal than the Barnes puts on them. I shoot a really hot load of H4350 in a Lapua case at 2700 fps+.
