I live and hunt in north central interior of B.C. Canada. Up here the black bears can get big depending on what gene pool they hale from. I hunt them with either my 308 Norma Mag using a 200gr Speer Spz. (el cheapo bullet) or with my 300 Weatherby mag using 190 or 210 Berger VLDes. Some folks up here use the 06 with 168 to 180 grain or the 7mm Mag with 170grain I do believe. Yes the 308 with the grain weights you mentioned will work just fine up untill the time you come across a huge grizz with a serious attitude problem. The 308 will feel like a BB gun in your hands and you are faced with your worse nightmare. Now down in the lower 48 the chanches of running into a bad g bear are slim to none, up here it is an entirely different story.
