Thanks for all the kind words guys. FWIW, there is a complete hunt report with pix on AR should you care to read. The thread was started by Bob Connell who is the administrator of Texas Predator Posse forum and the organizer of our hunt. My report and pix follow his. http://forums.accuratereloading.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/3411043/m/7971028871Best GWB

Geedbya, very nice Merkel. Just added a second barrel to my Blaser Luxus K95--a 7x57, the first "7mm-08"  -- and mean to find a black bear next spring in Montana. i've never been one for safe queens but having qualms about dragging this one over hard scabble, through brush, up, down, and around with perhaps a fall or two but believe you are right--marks made by earning its keep only give it more character.
