I love the 250 Savage and have owned one since childhood..I have shot elk, deer and one bear with the 250 Savage..It is a good killer of most game.

As great a round as it is, I don't use it for bear as the bear has a lot of hair and that hair sucks up blood like a seve, thus no blood trail with lighter calibers...I like the .338 and larger calibers for that reason only. It has paid off on a couple of ocassions.
