[QUOTE="dogbuster0006, post: 894511, member: 39547"] If you wanted to shoot the 270 i would personally go with a heavier bullet. Any of the guns you mentioned would do a fine job with a good bullet and correct shot placement. If you want a dedicated bear gun a 35 rem or even a 45-70 lever gun would be a hell of a bear rifle. If you need a reason to buy or build a rifle we are here to help you. You don't "need" a different rifle what you've got will do just fine with the right bullets. Check the barnes tsx or tipped tsx they're a tougher bullet and would probably be right up your alley. I will be hunting blackies here in alaska with a 25-06 and 115 berger vlds, I've got a 7rem mag with barnes tsx for back up just in case a long shot needs to be made and a buddy will be carrying it.
