The one thing thats against the 444 as a bear rifle is you cant use big bullets IE can the 444 chamber a 525gr pile driver? or a 405 gr I dont think it can!!! I'm not saying the 444 is GARBAGE it just has it's LIMETS.Because when you shoot a bear with a heavey hard cast bullet from a 45/70 will go alot deeper in the animal therefore with one 525 it's all it would take!.
