[QUOTE="steelhead55, post: 951435, member: 37636"] Hello everyone I have been lurking on here for sometime. I am spring bear hunting now with some buddies. Everyone but me uses a 30 cal or .338 cal. .300 win mag .338 mag .338 edge I have a nice 7mm rem mag. Am I going in under gunned?? I really don't see spending the money for a new gun and dies,scope etc.... Planning on building the best gun I can with what I've got. Planning on a good vortex scope. Looking at either 162 hornady bullets to load or some Bergers. My gun is a savage 110 24" barrel 1-9.5" twist. Right now have loaded up some nosler ballistic 140 gr figure I'm ok to 350ish. Need if possible be deadly to 500-600. Can this be done with what I got or should I bite the bullet and buy a 300 mag? Oregon sized black bears. 200-300 lbs. thanks again [/QUOTE]
