Phfft. Bear claws...I hear honey buns are the go to bait.
Thin skinned game, just like deer and probably at close range. 6mm with 85gr nosler partition probably.
When I think bout bears I always hear a voice in my head laughing n hollerin "skin that one pilgrim, I'll getcha anothern"
Oh geeze. Some of yall must think black bear are wearing body armor and hopped up on PCP. I believe it comes from lack of experience mostly. I see similar replies in the "what to use for hogs" thread also.
Unless you are going to try and snatch a cub from a sow (female bear) you won't be in a self defense situation. It is common for a black bear to climb up the tree or the ladder to a hunters stand and they tell it "go away" and the bear quickly retreats. Sounds like some of you would be wetting your panties.
The .308 or .30-06 will do just fine. (The calibers, I didn't pay attention to optics on those rifles that close) Plus you can practice a lot without breaking the bank.
