[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 997057, member: 30671"] We ran the Ruger semi-auto a number of years back. The kids ran ammo a coffee can at a time through it. Always came up shooting. I can't recall the chronograph data right now. For a common reference Buffalo Bore is advertising 1770 fps from for the 300 grain bullets in an 18.5 inch barrel. They also have a 340 but some disclaimers about what it is safe in. I have the 96/44 and it's been good to us, but I would like one of the newer generation Ruger semi-auto's with a detachable magazine. A collapsible butt stock, and pistol grip would be perfect LOL. The 300 Hornady XTP always flattened a bunch at this velocity. For bigger bear the 300 Sierra, and hard cast would be my choice. [/QUOTE]
