[QUOTE="Dean2506, post: 536253, member: 31181"] A slingshot is not the best choice for bear but it that is the only choice you have I would recommend using the longest highest bc projectile for that caliber. That being said you will have to use a higher twist in order to properly stabilize the flight. I would only use solid or bonded projectiles in order to control expansion. Also the draw length will need to be increased to gain velocity with that high twist high weight for caliber projectile. I would say 120 in minimum but 160 or 180 inches would probably be better. even with those modifications ranges should be kept fairly short and shot placement would be CRITICAL. I would also recommend a repeating weapon for fast followup shots. just my .02 cents [/QUOTE]
