[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 225739, member: 1403"] Congratulations on the bear kill. Its always nice to get rid of them dam things...Gettin to be way to many of them... I"ve had no such luck in about 4 attempts since the season opened here. I haven't even seen one yet, which is really surprising... +1 for the AB Similar experience with the 200g SMK out of my 300 RUM on a 400 lb black bear at 250 yards, except there was much less bullet left. No core to be found, just a little piece of jacket on the far side shoulder. Granted the bear only went a few yards and was dead on arrival, however I just wouldn't feel comfortable using another match bullet on bears or elk unless its the 300g SMK. I switched to the 200g AB out of my 300 RUM and proceeded to kill a few elk, with shoulder shots that anchored them DRT with baseball size exits. Much better for bigger game. [/QUOTE]
