Bullcamp.....please show me anywhere in this thread where I stated a .44 mag was not sufficient for hunting Black bear.
I actually suggested a 300 gr .460 S&W load that is comparable to a .44 Ruger/TC only load. My comments were that there really is no such thing as overkill when it comes to hunting bears with a straight walled
HANDGUN cartridge. My suggestion for the OP was to use the appropriate bullet for the velocity he intends to shoot them at, not that he avoid using a .44. But if and when you find that reference in my post, I'd appreciate you showing it to me.
You might actually like the square dancing thingy tho........
