I have used a 243, 30-06, 7.62x54 Russian and 300 Win Mag. on black bears.

Do you think my 7x57 with 140 grain Noslers would do the job too?

Nosler Partitions would be an excellent choice. One of my favoriate bullets!
 
Thanks guys. I have a new to me 1955 Husquvarna Lightweight 7x57 I'm itching to take out.

I have shot over 15 Black Bears with that very combination: 140 Partition in the 7x57 Mauser at about 2850-2900 fps, depending on load, barrel etc.
Don't remember ever having to shoot twice, even on one very big bruin. Eagleye.
