Many years ago, I dropped a sow with a 338WM. Took the whole mag.
Bullet used, shot placement, etc.
The 338WM was quite new then and ammo I had was Winchester 200 gr Power Points. The bear stood up and looked over the willows at me at about 75 yards. I shot her right below the eye and she dropped into the willows. thinking I had a dead bear, I walked into the willows and had a one-eyed grizzly coming after me. Four more shots in front shoulder area finally got her down.
Dang! That would get a fellow's attention. Glad you made it. Bullet penetration wasn't so great?
