[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2055149, member: 26077"] Hornady 175 Grain Interlocks out of the 7 Mag work great on bear. Heavy enough for complete penetration on shoulder shots but heavy expansion so you get a good wide wound channel and an exit wound. Bears rarely ran at all shot through the shoulders with them. Partition would be my next choice. Study bear anatomy, what a lot of guys think is a shoulder shot is actually too far back and often too low.. If you look at the pictures below, the suggested aim point is a lung shot. It will kill the bear, but not before it runs quite a long ways.
