cje1980, I can't draw any type of accurate conclusion by the incident you described.
I didn't ask you to! I shared a story that actually happened over a year ago in a tiny town in the western mountains of Maine. I don't recall the newspaper article mentioning shot placement.

In fact, I don't ever recall reading a newspaper article regarding the killing of any wild animal in these parts where shot placement was reported.

I think any experienced gunman going after bear with a revolver would choose a .44 magnum over a .357 every time.

Personally, I'd take along a high powered long gun.
