'bou and bear load

[rangermonroe]

I am going to Canada at the end of the month.

Any suggestions on a load for a bear out of a 270?

I am handy with 130 grain BT's, but I wonder if that is appropriate.

The primary hunt is for caribou... but you can kill them with harsh language.

Black bear @ 200 yards. Any recipe's?

really? How many have you killed with harsh language?

PS..if you cant kill a black bear with a 130 grain 270, you aint hittin him in the right place

I'd go for the heavier 150 gr . Harsh language ? I though you just said 'please fall down '!!

I suppose that I could kill a black bear with a 22 pistol if I hit him in the right spot, but Wildidon'tthinkthatistheappropriatenorethicalthingtodo.IfurthermorethinkthatthatgivesushuntersabadnamewhenwepracticesuchjuvenilebehaviorAlaska.

However, thanks for the reply.

Anyone else have a thought on a combo load?

Hey if your gonna string together words at least try to make sense....

But I guess the gist of it is that you dont think a 130 is adequate for black bear.

if so, why are you even asking the question?

Yeah, I'm sure that if I stab a yak in the right spot it will die.

If I am not mistakin', this is the reloading forum...

Any thoughts on 150 gr winchester CT's....?
