[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2776606, member: 313"] Black bears can have an extraordinary amount of fat. Using a large diameter bullet will help keep that fat from clogging up bullet holes and promotes external bleeding. That's why I much prefer the 45-70 to other capable cartridges. Yeah, the 6.5s will kill them but there are cartridges better suited IMO. [ATTACH type="full"]448427[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
