Recommendation: Flip a 5-sided coin and call what ever you want. It will be fine
If you want to eat more of it, load a 200 grainer at 2,450 in the 06 and enjoy. For "spectacular" results, use the 25 webee with a TSX and blast through both shoulders. I wouldn't think he would go far.
Black Bears are some of the easiest critters to put down. Have skun out a couple-three dozen and am still amazed how puny their skeletal system is. A three hundred pound Caribou is much tougher in the skeletal department. Bone mass is much larger and thicker. I find it curious (and humorous)that no one has ever claimed it was tough to kill a Caribou on the "inna-net." Go figure
