[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1582236, member: 69192"] For me I like the 338-06s and the 350 RemMag, both really good black bear cartridges. I think that the 356 Winchester is also a great round for bear hunting. The 338-06 ought to be capable of doing a great job for long range hunting. I hunt black bear with a 35 Whelen, 358 Winchester and a Marlin Guide Gun in 45-70. Have never shot a bear with the Guide Gun but wouldn't think twice about hunting with it if the occasion presented itself. I am not a fan of the .44 mag for bear hunting, only because I believe there are betting cartridges to get the job done. I suspect that I'll raise some eyebrows with this statement, however it's MHO!! For bear hunting I like a caliber that will leave a through and through hole so there will be a good blood trail if it is needed. [/QUOTE]
