Black Bear

[The Hungry Hunter]

50 cal GPR Lyman. Is it enough for close range black bear? 110 gr. 2f or 90 gr.3f as the high range loads recommended. 50 yds or less.

Yep, no problem - just need to have good shot placement :thumbsup:

If it were me I would use a load with a lot more whomp but that is just me. I have had bears make bluff charges at me, and I have seen enough to say I would want more power. Ron
