[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1284437, member: 85987"] +1 on the 85gn serria's. We ran a pack of hounds for a bunch of years. In over 100 dead bears the most messed up insides we saw were 4 bears shot with the 85gn serria's. These are close range out of a tree shots. 10tw barrels and 3250-3350fps loads. Absolutely devastating for that task. If I were hunting them at distance the 105 Amax would be my bullet not a 115 in any flavor. It's not a big bullet so if it doesn't open you will not have much blood to trail. Bigger is much better for bears. [/QUOTE]
