[QUOTE="Alaska_Guy, post: 1469081, member: 106715"] Depends on your shooting distance. My old man was of the impression early on to load as hot as he could get while still obtaining good groups. The issue he had on a black bear was the bullet fragmented apart when he shot it at 100 yards. It took about 5 shots to kill that bear. He was using Accubonds. He now loads in the middle of the range as most of his shots are 100-200 yards and he doesn't need the extra velocity. If you were taking shots at long range then I would say load it hotter. [/QUOTE]
