[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2801941, member: 75451"] dogz, please attempt to read a bit more carefully! 😉 the following are some quotes from my previous post! * It's even been said that the average bear is no larger or harder to kill than the average Whitetail……true again! However, who in the hell goes out intending to shoot average? I’m disappointed to hear that the average Black Bear in Montana is likely less than 150 pounds. 🫢 Is this the weight of the average bear killed or an average of the entire population using weights from newborn cubs to adult bears? 🤔 * The cartridge is already "somewhat marginal" for a worst case scenario…..why further compound the "possible" problems using a "less than premium" bullet. PLEASE read carefully……. Quote: The cartridge is already "somewhat marginal" for a worst case scenario The key words here…..worst case scenario! * Both of these issues should weigh heavily into the equation….if it may be a one time hunt. * If the hunter will have or has had many opportunities…..use anything that is thought to be adequate! Perhaps this was not clear …though I thought it was pretty clear! In the very same sentence that I spoke of the “hunter“ having many opportunities and stated post comma, “use anything that is thought to be adequate”…..obviously meaning the “hunter” Simply meaning……the “hunter” can chose anything he/she deems (thinks) adequate to accomplish the task! Apparently reading comprehension is not a prerequisite in all schools! I’m sorry for the loss of your friend…..I wish that I had met and had the opportunity to know Bob! The smaller cartridges are much improved, however, the effectiveness of the larger more powerful cartridges had not diminished over time…..in fact I suspect that they are improved by the same technology that has improved the smaller cartridges/calibers! I have zero knowledge of your background or life experiences…..nor you mine! memtb [/QUOTE]
