[QUOTE="Jerry M, post: 1482953, member: 6330"] As stated above .30-06 or .270 Winchester. Black bears can get very large, the record kills are 600-700 pounds. That's a lot of animal to shoot at 27 minutes after sun down at 30 yards with a 6.5.... I've killed zebra and Blue Wildebeest with .30-06, 180 gr Nosler Partitions. My Black Bear (no record here) I shot with 130 gr Winchester power Point out of a .270 Winchester. I shot two Caribou with a .308 Winchester using 165 gr Speer SPBT, but for their size they died very easy. All one shot kills, except the second Caribou which needed a finishing shot. Shot deer with .30-06, .270 Win and .308 Win. All very effective. Good Luck Jerry [/QUOTE]
