[QUOTE="soundwaves, post: 1276856, member: 15819"] if you not gona go long range why dont you go for the 8mm mauser aka 7.9x57 ? fantastic for the ranges you are after and it is much more capable against the black bear ( dangerous game ) than any of the callibers you mentioned specialy when you are close in and not shooting long range. its not popular over there in the USA but its verry popular in europe and the rest of the World for hunting wild boar ( tough animal ). and l think you can never go wrong with a 30-06. l dont think any of these rounds have hardly any recoil. wimmen easyly hunt with 12 guage shotguns as long as thay know how to actualy hold a gun.! EDİT : Bears can be very dangerous specialy if you gona hunt them from close range. just walking in the forest with bears roaming in it is risky anough. in a situation where a woonded bear or a very angry bear is charging me l would rather have the 8mm mauser with me than any 6.5 mm bullet. in situations like that adrenalin rushes so much that aiming becomes a problem thats if you have any time to aim through the scope. and how calm can most woman be in that situation to calmly but rapidly shoulder the rifle and aim down the barrel like you would a shot gun and hit a vital area to stop the animal dead ? thats why bigger bullets are better in them situation because it alows alot more room for error. the 8mm mauser is a fantastic choice for situations like that. and it is very capable of killing deer sized game out past 500+ yards easyly. PS: you could also think about buying her a .17 or a .22 rimfire singleshot if she doesnt let you hunt too often. LOL [/QUOTE]
