[QUOTE="Rustystud, post: 473197, member: 9964"] Black bears shot through both lungs rarely go 100 yards. And are usually going away from the shooter after the shot. Coastal brown bears and their cousins mountain grizzlies will go down with a double lung shot. But you take out only one lung and you become the hunted. Generally hunting Browns one will be shooting a heavier rifle with controlled expansion bullets. If one shoots and breaks both shoulders the bear is planted long enough for a follow up double lung shot. The great gun writer Bob Hagel once said "there is no such thing as having to much gun, dead is dead" Nat Lambeth [/QUOTE]
