Apart from the question mark, I don’t even understand how this is a question...
Same here.
As many have said, either choice would work.
I wouldnt think twice about shooting a black bear with a .223 and a good mono...
Eskimos don’t think twice about whacking 1,000 lb. polar bears with .22 cf, and they don’t use premiums either.
They are crazy, but I can’t recall anyone getting AFU by doing so.
