Has anyone......?

Post by kscarrington »

I know that other rounds similar to the 300 BLK have been around for some time now (can't quite get myself to converge the concepts and call it the BLK). But with what we now know as the 300 BLK, has anyone had any luck, good or bad, with using it for a bear hunt? I'm looking primarily for feedback on AR-based platforms but would be interested in hearing about the bolt guns as well. My goal is to shoot a black bear with one next spring.

I know someone who killed a large bear at 400 meters with it.

Well damn, guess I won't be the "first" but it at least continues to instill my confidence in the round to do the job. If I had to shoot behind 100 yards it would be atypical. Last year's cinnamon was shot at 65 yards before I even made it into the stand.

If you happen to know, what kind of ammunition did he use?
