Unless for some reason the deal falls through, I'll be heading up to the NC coast for a bear hunt this fall... It's one of those deals that's almost too good to be true, but we'll see. Anyway, that's got me thinking about bullets, and I know the logical choice is a 300 grain Nosler or Barnes. But what about my .45? Do you guys not think the 195 Barnes would get the job done at say 150 yards or less loaded with 120 grains of BH?
Because of the warmth in the Carolina's out bear don't hibernate so in turn they can get some size on them, but most are in the 200 to 300lb range. I'm sure if everything go's right I'll have a .50 Ultimate Slam loaded with one of the bullets mentioned above, but I thought this would be an interesting topic to discuss... so what do you guys think?
